§ 60. Mr. W. THORNEasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the first part of the Report of the White Slave Traffic Commission prepared for the League of Nations will be available for Members?
Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSONI will have a copy of the first part of the Report sent to the Library of the House. It has been printed by the League of Nations, and is on sale with their other publications to any member of the public.
§ Mr. THORNEWill the hon. Gentleman be prepared to publish the Report?
§ Mr. THORNEWhy not?
Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSONBecause, to do that, it would have to be a Command Paper. It has already been published by the League of Nations, and we do not feel that, the Government can incur the expense of reprinting what has already been published by the League of Nations.
§ Mr. THORNECan the hon. Gentleman inform me how I can make it a Command Paper?
§ Colonel DAYWill the hon. Gentleman use his influence to see that the whole Report is published?
Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSONI have already said in answer to a question, I think before Easter, that that is really a matter for the League itself. The various Governments concerned are at present considering that.
