HC Deb 01 August 1930 vol 242 cc898-9
15. Mr. MANDER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if it is the intention of the British delegation to the Assembly of the League of Nations in September to take such steps as may be necessary to propose that the annual report of the International Bank should be forwarded to the appropriate organ of the League of Nations for consideration, in order that contact between the two bodies may be maintained?

Mr. SNOWDEN

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to a question put by him on the same matter on the 27th May last.

Mr. MANDER

My question was quite different. I asked whether the British delegation at Geneva will take such opportunities as present themselves of raising this matter?

Mr. SNOWDEN

I anticipated that at the time I gave the hon. Member the answer, and I said that I thought it would be premature at the present time to lay down generally the matters for discussion at Geneva.

Mr. McSHANE

Will the report be made available to Members of this House?

Mr. SNOWDEN

I cannot say.
