HC Deb 28 July 1930 vol 242 c14
27. Mr. MARJORIBANKS

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can now state the reasons given by the Soviet Government for its refusal to take part in the Lena arbitration?

Mr. DALTON

As the hon. Member is doubtless aware, statements of the Soviet Government's attitude in this matter appeared in the Press on the 13th of May last; and my right hon. Friend is not in a position to add anything to those statements.

Mr. C. WILLIAMS

Will the hon. Gentleman ever be able to give an answer to this question?

Mr. DALTON

This particular case is still sub judice.
