§ 3. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he has any further information with regard to the situation in Persia?
§ Sir P. LLOYD-GREAME (Secretary, Overseas Trade Department)Since the events described by my hon. Friend, the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, in his answer on 28th February to questions by the hon. and gallant Members for Stafford and Hull, a Government has been formed by Said Zia ed Din, and our reports reveal a more satisfactory state of affairs at the capital since its advent to power. His Majesty's Government are watching sympathetically the efforts of the new Cabinet who may rest assured that any action taken for the maintenance of order and the establishment of normal conditions will be welcome to His Majesty's Government.
§ Colonel WEDGWOODAre any refugees still taking refuge in the British Legation at Teheran?
§ Sir P. LLOYD-GREAMEI cannot answer that question without notice. Perhaps the hon. and gallant Gentleman will put down a question.
