HC Deb 21 July 1927 vol 209 c568
43. Mr. HARRIS

asked the Prime Minister whether he will be able to make a statement before the House rises on the result of the Geneva Conference; and whether it is anticipated that any savings realised will take effect in the present financial year?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (Mr. Churchill)

I think it is doubtful whether any announcement of the result of the Conference can be made before the House adjourns.

Mr. HARRIS

Will there be any opportunity to discuss what is going on at Geneva?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Whether it would be desirable to discuss it in the absence of some result or some Government statement is one question, but, of course, the Adjournment Motion gives considerable liberty to hon. Members.
