HC Deb 07 April 1919 vol 114 c1648
50. Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked whether the Report on their visit to Russia by Mr. Lincoln Steffens and Mr. Bullit has been communicated to His Majesty's Government, or is as yet only known in Paris; and, if it has been communicated to His Majesty's Government, will he lay a copy upon the Table that Members may see the latest Report as to the state of affairs in Russia?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

The answer to the first part of my hon. and gallant Friend's question is in the negative. So far as His Majesty's Government are concerned the second part of the question does not, therefore, arise.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

Is the Government taking any steps to obtain copies of this Report?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

I will inquire.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

This Commission which has come back from Russia is a most important one; and has the Foreign Office taken, or will they take, any steps to secure the same information that the American Government has got?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

I will make inquiries.
