HC Deb 08 October 1924 vol 177 cc482-3
4. Sir GEOFFREY BUTLER

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, seeing that the Covenant of the League of Nations enjoins the registration of all treaties with the Secretariat of the League of Nations, and the subsequent publication at the earliest possible moment by the Secretariat of such treaties, he can inform the House as to the extent to which it has been found practicable by the Secretariat to conform with the obligation of publication; and what practice in the matter the Secretariat is adopting or proposes to adopt?

Mr. PONSONBY

The Secretariat-General publish the treaties registered with them at intervals of about a month in the League of Nations "Treaty Series."
