ELECTIONS. (Hansard, 5 August 1925)

HC Deb 05 August 1925 vol 187 c1334 1334

§ 14. Mr. PONSONBY
asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs when the Egyptian elections are to be held?

§ Mr. McNEILL
It is unlikely that the date of the Egyptian elections will be fixed before the promulgation of the new electoral law, which is still under consideration by the Egyptian Government.

§ Mr. PONSONBY
Was this subject discussed by the Foreign Secretary and the Prime Minister of Egypt in their recent conversation?

§ Mr. McNEILL
Not so far as I am aware.
