§ 47. Mr. LEACHasked the Prime Minister when the Disarmament Conference, suspended at. Geneva in March, 1933, for a few days, is likely to meet again?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe hon. Member is under a misapprehension. The Disarmament Conference was not suspended in March, 1933, but continued to meet in 1933 and 1934. As regards future developments I would refer to the reply given by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs to a question asked by the hon. Member for Gower (Mr. Grenfell) on 4th February last.
§ Mr. LEACHWill the right hon. Gentleman take measures to get this conference going again so that he may have a chance of saving the appalling expenditure which he contemplates?
