§ 10. Mr. HANNON (for Vice-Admiral TAYLOR)asked the President of the Board of Trade what is the earliest date at which a revision of the Treaty of St. Germain-en-Laye can be considered?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANMy hon. and gallant Friend's question involves a number of very complicated legal questions which are now under consideration. But in any case I am advised that it would not be possible to terminate the Convention (unless all the parties agreed otherwise) until a conference between the parties to the St. Germain Convention has been held.
Mr. HAMMERS LEYIn considering this matter, will my right hon. Friend bear in mind the resolution and representations which he has recently received from the Lancashire, Westmorland and Cheshire Committee?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANYes, Sir. Certainly.
