HC Deb 27 July 1926 vol 198 c1904
46. Dr. DRUMMOND SHIELS

asked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the growing importance of the Esperanto World Congress, which is to be held this year in Edinburgh at the beginning of August, he will arrange for an official welcome to be extended to the Congress on behalf of His Majesty's Government?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Godfrey Locker-Lampson)

I have been asked to reply. As His Majesty's Government are not taking part in this Congress, they feel unable to accept the suggestion of the hon. Member.
