§ 20. Captain CROOKSHANKasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any British troops have been employed in the recent disturbances in Egypt; and, if so, where and to what extent?
Mr. A. HENDERSONThe reply to the first part of the question is in the negative. The second part, therefore, does not arise.
§ Mr. THURTLEWill the right hon. Gentleman bear in mind the undesirability of employing these troops in any attempt to thwart parliamentary government in Egypt?
