§ 8. Mr. RHYS DAVIESasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will make inquiries and inform the House of the result of the petition concerning the treatment of the Ukrainian minority in Poland, which was signed by a number of British Members of Parliament and others and transmitted to the League of Nations on 29th December, 1934?
§ Sir S. HOAREThe Secretary-General of the League of Nations forwarded this petition to the Polish delegate on 31st January, for any observations which the Polish Government might desire to make. As the Polish Government did not inform the Secretary-General, within the customary time-limit of three weeks, of their intention to make any observations on the petition the Secretary-General communicated the petition on 5th March to the members of the League Council for their information. The question is now under consideration by a Committee of Three.
