HC Deb 10 January 1916 vol 77 c1288
53. Sir HENRY DALZIEL

asked the Prime Minister whether he proposes to grant the House an opportunity to discuss the Report of General Sir Ian Hamilton in reference to the Suvla Bay operations?

The PRIME MINISTER

No, Sir, I think it would not be desirable to discuss Sir Ian Hamilton's Report at the present time.

Mr. HOGGE

Will the right hon. Gentleman be now disposed to grant the inquiry asked for by the hon. Member for Pembrokeshire? Other hon. Members are backing up the request. [That a Select Committee be apointed to inquire into the initiation, conduct, and position of the Campaign in the Dardanelles.]

The PRIME MINISTER

I do not know what it is.

Mr. HOGGE

An inquiry into the whole conduct of the Expedition to the Dardanelles.

The PRIME MINISTER:

No, Sir.
