HC Deb 09 April 1923 vol 162 cc851-2
11. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether there are any British diplomatic or consular representatives in Eastern Galicia; if so, in which towns or districts they are stationed; whether any reports on the political and economic situation in the province have been received; and whether they will be published?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Ronald McNeill)

Recent reports received from him and from His Majesty's Minister at Warsaw indicate that there are signs of an improvement of relations between the Polish and Ruthenian elements of the local population. No useful purpose would be served by publishing these reports.
