HC Deb 08 November 1920 vol 134 c819
60. Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

asked the Lord Privy Seal when the Debate on the Turkish Peace Treaty will be taken?

Mr. BONAR LAW (Leader of the House)

I cannot name a definite date, but we expect to take it during the present Session.

Mr. A. WILLIAMS

Will the right hon. Gentleman bear in mind the extreme urgency of ratification?

Mr. BONAR LAW

We all realise its importance, but my hon. Friend knows how pressed for time the House has been.

Lieut.-Colonel MURRAY

Is it not important that ratification should take place in order that the War may be brought to an end?

Mr. BONAR LAW

That is only theoretically true. The War will not in effect be brought to an end by the ratification.
