HC Deb 16 May 1918 vol 106 cc505-6
3. Mr. OUTHWAITE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether his attention has been called to the fact that Prince Sixte de Bourbon paid two visits to England in connection with the peace proposals made by the Emperor Karl to President Poincaré and that he was in communication with the Prime Minister on the subject; whether the Prime Minister informed him that proposals for peace had been made; and, if so, at what date?

Mr. BALFOUR

I have already explained to the House that this subject cannot, in my opinion, be properly dealt with by question and answer. I gather that it will be raised on the Adjournment.

Mr. OUTHWAITE

May I point out to the right hon. Gentleman—

Mr. SPEAKER

The hon. Member will probably have an opportunity in the course of the Debate.
