§ 46. Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Thomas Mooreasked the Prime Minister when the last meeting of those leaders of the United Nations located in Britain was held; and whether it is proposed that these meetings shall take place at regular intervals in the future?
§ The Deputy Prime Minister (Mr. Attlee)The last Allied Conference was held on 13th January, 1942. Like earlier meetings it was held for a specific purpose, and further meetings will doubtless be arranged as occasion requires. It would not be desirable to hold formal meetings at stated intervals.
§ Sir T. MooreDoes not the right hon. Gentleman think that if these meetings were regularly held, it would not only promote co-operation in the war effort but might well lay the foundation for lasting peace in post-war Europe?
§ Mr. AttleeI do not think that it would be useful to hold these meetings at the moment.
