§ 8. Mr. A. Hendersonasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any decision has been taken by the League Council as to the date of the next meeting of the bureau of the Disarmament Conference; and whether he could state the matters to be discussed?
§ Mr. EdenThe Council has decided that the next meeting of the bureau of the Disarmament Conference will take place on 6th May next. The bureau will decide its own agenda when it meets.
§ Mr. HendersonIn view of the fact that Germany has now secured equality of status, which was the reason alleged for leaving the Disarmament Conference in October, 1933, will the Government consider inviting Germany to resume its participation in the Disarmament Conference?
§ Mr. EdenI think that the House will be aware that there is nothing we should desire more than that Germany should resume participation.
