§ 78. Mr. JELLETTasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether his attention has been drawn to the activities of the accredited representatives of the Irish republic claiming a diplomatic status in the capitals of certain countries friendly to Great Britain, noticeably in Paris and Washington; and whether, through His Majesty's ambassadors, he will inform the Governments of these countries that the Irish republic is not recognised by His Majesty's Government.
Mr. HARMSWORTHI have no reason to suppose that any foreign Government is in ignorance of the political status of Ireland, and representations of the character suggested by the hon. and learned Member are therefore not called for.
