HC Deb 05 February 1934 vol 285 c805
13. Brigadier-General NATION (for Mr. WHYTE)

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if his attention has been drawn to the German-Polish pact for non-aggression; and if, in view of the success of this negotiation and in order that the cause of peace may best be served, he will take steps to have the Disarmament Conference disbanded and so leave nations free to negotiate similar binding agreements between themselves?

Sir J. SIMON

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. The two Governments have been informed of the satisfaction with which His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom have learned of the conclusion of this pact. The answer to the second part of the question is in the negative.
