§ 35. Mr. STURROCKasked the Undersecretary for Foreign Affairs whether he can inform the House of the name and qualifications of the British Consul at Geneva; the length of this gentleman's service under the Foreign Office; and whether he will state this gentleman's qualifications for the post?
§ Sir H. GREENWOODThe British Consulate at Geneva has hitherto been an unsalaried post which was held by Monsieur de Candolle, a Swiss citizen, for the last seven years. Monsieur de Candolle has now resigned, and Geneva is to be made a paid Consulate-General. Pending the creation of this post, Geneva is in charge of an acting officer, who, until recently, was acting-consul at St. Moritz.
