HC Deb 01 March 1920 vol 126 c20
30. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Prime Minister if he will state who will be the British representatives on the Commission of Inquiry to be sent by the International Labour Bureau to Soviet Russia; whether the Liberal and Labour parties in this country will be invited to nominate representatives; when the Commission is expected to start for Russia; and whether the consent of the Soviet Government to the sending of this Commission is being sought?

The PRIME MINISTER

The arrangements for conducting, on behalf of the League of Nations, the enquiry into conditions in Russia will be entirely in the hands of the Council of the League. Until the Council has held a meeting, which it has not yet had time to do, I can give no information on the points raised by the hon. Member.
