HC Deb 19 February 1934 vol 286 cc10-1
17. Mr. HANNON

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he can make a statement on the proceedings of the League Committee of Three entrusted by the Council of the League of Nations with the preparation of plans for the conduct of the plebiscite of the Saar?

Sir J. SIMON

I have no information regarding the proceedings of the committee referred to by my hon. Friend, though I understand that it met in Geneva on 15th February.

Mr. HANNON

Will the Government see, as far as possible, that no undue pressure is brought to bear upon any elector in the Saar to make him vote in a particular way during the progress of the plebiscite?

Sir J. SIMON

The hon. Member will see that the matter that he has just mentioned is manifestly one that is being considered by this very Committee.

Forward to
