§ 26. Lord ROBERT CECILasked the Prime Minister whether it is the policy of the British Government to press for the earliest possible meeting of the assembly of the League of Nations; and if so, whether they have formed any opinion as to when that meeting can take place.
§ The PRIME MINISTERI have not yet had an opportunity of discussing this matter with my right hon. Friend, our representative on the Council of the League of Nations, but I hope to do so shortly. The time and place of meeting of the Assembly is, of course, a matter for the Council to decide, and I will ask my right hon. Friend whether the matter is to be discussed at a forthcoming meeting of the Council.
§ Lord R. CECILWill my right hon. Friend give an answer if I put another question down for the first day after the Recess?
§ The PRIME MINISTERYes, Sir. I think the Council of the League will meet here in the course of the next few days.
