TREATY. (Hansard, 23 July 1930)

HC Deb 23 July 1930 vol 241 c2122 2122

§ 2. Mr. WARDLAW-MILNE
asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any proposals for the reopening of negotiations regarding a treaty with Egypt have been made to him on behalf on any political party or organisation in that country?

Mr. A. HENDERSON
No, Sir.

§ Mr. WARDLAW-MILNE
May we take it, then, that the report current in London that negotiations had been reopened unofficially are untrue?

Mr. HENDERSON
What does my answer imply except that?

§ Mr. WARDLAW-MILNE
The right hon. Gentleman might have been referring to official negotiations.

Mr. HENDERSON
I have nothing do with unofficial negotiations.
