HC Deb 14 May 1925 vol 183 c2014
Mr. THURTLE

asked the Prime Minister if he will take the initiative in calling a World Conference on the question of general disarmament?

The PRIME MINISTER

The reduction of armaments, as the hon. Member is aware, is still under the consideration of the League of Nations, and I do not think that any initiative at present on the part of His Majesty's Government would be advantageous.
