3. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether there is a British Vice-Consul at. Boryslaw, Eastern Galicia; whether a Vice-Consul was appointed there in January, 1921; and, if there is no British Vice-Consul there now, when he was withdrawn?

Mr. McNEILL
