HC Deb 23 December 1929 vol 233 cc1900-1
48. Major HILLS

asked the Prime Minister whether, seeing that the Washington Eight House Convention was passed over 10 years ago, that it has frequently been discussed in this House, and that the Government have expressed the intention of ratifying it, he can give the House before it rises for Christmas some indication of when the matter will be brought before it?

Mr. LAWSON

I have been asked to reply. I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given by my right hon. Friend on 19th December of which I am sending him a copy.
