§ 42. Sir WILLIAM DAVISONasked the Prime Minister whether he will see 884 that an opportunity is found in the course of the forthcoming Imperial Conference with the Dominion Prime Ministers to secure their approval to an urgently needed amendment of the British Nationality Act of 1914, to enable the children of British subjects of British blood resident abroad to be recognised as British citizens, although born in a foreign country of a father who was not himself born within His Majesty's allegiance but is of full British blood?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI can add nothing to the answers already given to my hon. Friend in reply to questions on this subject.
§ Sir W. DAVISONIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that the Home Secretary said the arrangements of the agenda was not a matter for him, but for the Prime Minister, and can he say if he will, informally at any rate, consult the Dominion Prime Ministers upon a matter on which they are certain to agree, and it is only a question of securing their approval?
§ The PRIME MINISTERWe shall be discussing the agenda to-morrow, and I will call their attention to it.
