HC Deb 15 July 1935 vol 304 c727
3. Mr. JOHN WILMOT

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether His Majesty's Government intend to raise any question on the Statute of the International Zone of Tangier before the expiry, in November, 1935, of the period of its automatic renewal?

The SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Sir Samuel Hoare)

As already stated in reply to a question by my hon. Friend the Member for Wimbledon (Sir J. Power) on the 29th May, the attitude to be adopted by His Majesty's Government before November of this year on the question of the revision of the Tangier Statute depends on the replies of the other Powers concerned to the inquiry addressed to them by His Majesty's Government, which have not yet been received.
