§ 47. Dr. SHIELSasked the Prime Minister whether the British Government have refused to give information to the League of Nations of a, kind which other Governments have given, regarding alleged slavery conditions in certain areas for which Britain is responsible
§ The PRIME MINISTERThere is no foundation whatever for the suggestion that His Majesty's Government have ever withheld information asked for by the League of Nations regarding alleged slavery conditions in areas for which Britain is responsible.
§ Colonel WEDGWOODCan the right hon. Gentleman be equally definite as regards slavery conditions existing in countries not under our control, but as to which the Foreign Office has information?
§ The PRIME MINISTERPerhaps the right hon. and gallant Member will put down a question on the point.
