HC Deb 04 May 1916 vol 82 cc101-2
1. Mr. GINNELL

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the complaints of the Belgian and Serbian Governments that their respective interests were being injuriously affected by certain engagements of the British Government to another of the Allied Powers have been satisfied; whether the two Governments named are now participants in and parties to all the consultations and engagements of the Allies having reference to territorial adjustments after the War; and whether Papers will be laid before Parliament showing what those engagements are?

The SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Sir Edward Grey)

I have no knowledge of the complaints such as are alleged by the hon. Member. With regard to the second part of the question, I think the position regarding Belgium and Serbia is sufficiently explained in the answers returned to the hon. Member for North Somerset on 21st March and to the hon. Member for St. Augustine's on 2nd May. It is not proposed to lay any Papers on the subject.
