HC Deb 19 July 1938 vol 338 c1991
57. Mr. Mander

asked the Prime Minister if he is now able to state whether the question of the Sanjak of Alexandretta will be brought before the next meeting of the League of Nations, in view of the fact that an agreement has been reached between France and Turkey in substitution of the plan adopted by the Council of the League?

Mr. Butler

I have as yet no information regarding the subjects which will be discussed at the next meeting of the League Council.

Mr. Mander

In view of the fact that the Sanjak of Alexandretta is at present under mandate to France, will it not automatically come before the Mandates Commission of the League?

Mr. Butler

As I have said, I have no information.

Mr. Mander

Will the Under-Secretary be good enough to make inquiries on the subject?

Mr. Butler

I cannot make a statement on this subject now.
