§ 8. Mr. A. Hendersonasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether His Majesty's Government will oppose at the forthcoming meeting of the League Council any proposal to give de jure recognition to the Italian conquest of Abyssinia?
§ Mr. EdenNo agenda for the forthcoming meeting of the Council has yet been issued. I am not prepared to make 1416 a statement on a question which is at the moment, therefore, hypothetical.
§ Mr. HendersonMay the House take it that there has been no change in the policy of the Government as declared by the Foreign Secretary on the point?
