§ 59. Colonel HOWARD-BURYasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will state when it is expected that the Palestine Commission will issue its Report; and whether he will publish at the same time the minutes of the evidence?
§ Dr. SHIELSAt present I have nothing to add to previous replies on this subject.
§ Colonel HOWARD-BURYHas the hon. Gentleman any idea as to when this Report is likely to be ready?
§ Dr. SHIELSNo, Sir. The Commission is working very hard on the Report, but I have made inquiries to-day, and I am informed that they are not yet in a position to state when the Report will be ready.
§ Mr. BOOTHBYCan the hon. Gentleman give any reply to the second part of the question, as to whether the minutes of evidence will be published or not?
§ Dr. SHIELSI have replied to that question, on another occasion, and I have said that that matter will be considered when the Report has been received.
