HC Deb 02 December 1937 vol 329 cc2235-6
47. Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

asked the Prime Minister whether, arising out of the recent conversations with the French Ministers, it is proposed to enter into any communications with other countries upon which a settlement of the Colonial question in part depends?

The Prime Minister

I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to my reply on Tuesday last to the right hon. Gentleman the Leader of the Opposition, to which I have nothing to add.

Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

Does the Prime Minister not intend to enter into communication with the Governors of Dominions immediately about this matter?

48. Mr. Vyvyan Adams

asked the Prime Minister whether he will consult Parliament before any redistribution of Colonial territories is proposed or acquiesced in by His Majesty's Government?

The Prime Minister

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which I gave to a supplementary question by the right hon. Gentleman the Leader of the Opposition on Wednesday, 24th November, to which I have nothing to add.

Mr. Adams

Is the Prime Minister aware of the widespread relief that would follow an assurance of the kind for which I have asked?
