HC Deb 25 July 1918 vol 108 cc2002-3
51. Mr. KING

asked the Prime Minister whether, in the course of the proceedings on the Vote of Credit, he will make a statement on the position on the Murman Coast and in Eastern Siberia?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I do not think it probable that it will be possible, without detriment to the public interest, to discuss this question.

Mr. KING

If it is found possible, will some announcement be made, in view of the publication yesterday of the Agreement under which the Allies have entered upon an expedition in Murman?

Mr. BONAR LAW

On the Vote of Credit a statement will be made as full as possible with regard to the general War position, but I have no reason to believe at present that it will be possible to say anything with regard to this expedition.
