HC Deb 12 July 1923 vol 166 cc1564-5
52. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Prime Minister whether he has detailed the. British representatives for the Assembly of the League of Nations; if so, who are they; whether it is proposed to send a woman representative; and whether the parties in this House other than that supporting the Government will be invited to nominate a representative or representatives?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

My right hon. Friend is not yet in a position to make any announcement on this subject.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Is it intended to appoint these representatives just a few hours before they have to leave for the Conference, or are they to be given time to study the very complicated matters that are to come up this year?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I cannot add to the answer which I have given.

Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHY

When does the right hon. Gentleman expect to be in a position to state when these very important delegates will be appointed?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I will convey that question to the Prime Minister. I cannot add to the answer.
