HC Deb 27 June 1917 vol 95 cc356-7
5. Mr. LEES SMITH

asked whether His Majesty's Government have given any official recognition to the Italian protectorate over the Albanians?

Mr. BALFOUR

The answer is in the negative. As regards the accuracy of the expression "Italian protectorate over the Albanians," I would refer the hon. Member to the recent answers given in the House.
