HC Deb 08 June 1920 vol 130 cc207-8
51. Mr. LEONARD LYLE

asked the Prime Minister whether the Council of the League of Nations has tried in vain for the past seven weeks to get a definite reply from the Soviet Government for permission for a commission from the League to enter Russia and make an impartial examination of the conditions in that country?

Mr. BONAR LAW

The answer is in the affirmative.

Mr. LYLE

Is it not a fact that the Soviet Government, on the other hand, is encouraging personally conducted tours of Labour leaders and Members of the House of Commons?

Mr. SPEAKER

The hon. Member had better put that question on the Paper.
