HC Deb 07 December 1931 vol 260 c1494
12. Mr. MORGAN JONES

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he intends to submit the Convention to Strengthen the Means of Preventing War, which was adopted by the twelfth assembly of the League of Nations, to this House, with the object of securing its ratification or our accession to it?

Sir J. SIMON

His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom have not yet decided to sign the Convention, and the matter is under consideration. If it is decided to sign it, the Convention will, ill accordance with the existing practice, be laid on the Table of the House for twenty-one days before His Majesty is advised to ratify it.
