HC Deb 04 June 1919 vol 116 c1996
34. Mr. SPOOR

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any new Ministry has been formed in Egypt; and, if so, whether the Legislative Assembly will now be summoned?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

As I stated in reply to a question by the hon. and gallant Member for Stafford on 28th May, a new Ministry was formed on 21st May under the Presidency of Mohammed Said Pasha. Under present conditions in Egypt it would be premature to summon the Legislative Assembly.
