HC Deb 26 May 1938 vol 336 c1396
Mr. Noel-Baker (by Private Notice)

asked the Prime Minister whether His Majesty's Government will propose the immediate despatch of an imparital international commission to the frontier between Germany and Czechoslovakia to investigate the alleged violations of the frontier and other incidents which may arise.

The Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs (Mr. Butler)

The hon. Member's suggestion is one which His Majesty's Government will bear in mind should it appear likely to be helpful.

Mr. Noel-Baker

Will His Majesty's Government bear in mind that in previous similar cases, when there was a danger of war, experience has shown that the presence of such an impartial commission has been a guarantee of peace for all concerned?

Mr. Davidson

Is it possible for the Prime Minister to appoint an impartial commission?
