45. Mr. Vyvyan Adamsasked the Prime Minister when the House of Commons will have an opportunity of de-bating the report of the Royal Commission on Palestine?
§ The Prime Minister (Mr. Chamberlain)Discussions are now taking place through the usual channels with a view to arranging for a debate on the report of the Palestine Commission before the House rises for the Summer Recess.
Mr. AdamsWill the Government's eventual proposals be submitted to Parliament, or will the Executive exercise their treaty-making prerogative?
§ The Prime MinisterIt is clear that the Government's proposals will have to be debated by the House.
§ The Prime MinisterI do not know exactly what the hon. Member means by "submitted to Parliament." If they 1054 are being debated by Parliament, that is being submitted to Parliament.
§ Mr. AttleeCan the Prime Minister say whether he proposes to give a day on which the House can discuss the proposal and pass their opinions on it? This is not a question that merely arises on a Supply Day.
§ The Prime MinisterThe right hon. Gentleman will have heard me say that discussions are proceeding through the usual channels, and, in those circumstances, I think it would be better that I should not say anything further until we know what takes place.
