§ 7. Lieut.-Commander Fletcherasked the Prime Minister whether he is now able to make a statement concerning the denunciation by Germany of the Anglo-German Naval Agreement?
§ The Prime MinisterThe situation created by the denunciation of the Anglo-German Naval Agreement is being considered in all its aspects, and a communication will in due course be made to the German Government.
§ Lieut.-Commander FletcherWas there any consultation by Germany with His 13 Majesty's Government before this Agreement was denounced; and, if not, is it not very unusual for a Government to denounce an agreement without either notice or negotiations?
§ The Prime MinisterThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative, and the answer to the second part is in the affirmative.
