12. Sir H. BRITTAIN

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in regard to the Treaty of Tirana between Italy and Albania, signed on 27th November, 1926, he has received from the Government of the Serb-Croat-Slovene Kingdom any communication as to the effect of that Treaty upon Yugoslav interests in the Balkan Peninsula; and, if so, what is the nature of that communication, and what is the attitude of His Majesty's Government thereto?

His Majesty's Government are in communication with other interested Governments on various questions which have recently arisen in connection with Albania, but I am not in a position to make any further statement about them at the present time.
