§ 87. Mr. Rees-Williamsasked the Under-Secretary of State for Burma whether, in view of the urgent necessity for a Member of the Government to visit Burma in the immediate future to contact leaders of Burmese opinion and to see the state of the country, he will make such a visit without delay.
§ The Under-Secretary of State for Burma (Mr. Arthur Henderson)No, Sir. In the view of my noble Friend no good purpose would be served by such a visit at the present time.
§ Mr. Rees-WilliamsIn view of the fact that the Minister is not prepared to go himself, would he be prepared to send a Parliamentary delegation, because in the opinion of many people it is desirable that some important body of persons should go to Burma soon?
§ Mr. HendersonThat is an entirely different question Perhaps my hon. Friend would put down a Question.
