HC Deb 04 June 1935 vol 302 c1697
43. Mr. MANDER

asked the Prime Minister whether the Government would be prepared to enter into negotiations for the admission into the British Commonwealth of Nations of any State which applied for admission?

The PRIME MINISTER

I could not undertake on behalf of His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom to answer a hypothetical question of this character.

Mr. MANDER

Would the right hon. Gentleman not welcome applications from the whole world if they cared to come in?
