§ 2. Lieut. - Commander FLETCHERasked the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs whether, following on the recent success of the coal-cattle negotiations with the Irish Free State, he will now set on foot negotiations for settling all outstanding economic disputes between this country and the Irish Free State?
Mr. M. MacDONALDI have this aspect of the matter in mind and can assure the hon. Member that His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom will not fail to take advantage of any opportunity of improving relations between this country and the Irish Free State.
§ Mr. LOGANIs in, possible for the right hon. Gentleman to initiate proceedings with a view to improving the relationship between the two countries? The same promise was made by the right hon. Gentleman's predecessor, but nothing was done.
§ Mr. LEWISWould it not be well before entering into a further agreement with the Irish Free State to wait until they honour the obligations they have already undertaken?
