HC Deb 20 March 1911 vol 23 cc189-90W
Sir WILLIAM BULL

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty, whether the British naval officers delegated to the Conference which drew up the Declaration of London have conveyed to the Government any assurances that, in their opinion, the provisions of the Declaration would be advantageous to this country in the event of the Navy being engaged in war?

Mr. McKENNA

The representative of the Admiralty at the Conference was in agreement with his colleagues, and although not called upon to give any separate assurance to His Majesty's Government, he concurred in the provisions of the Declaration.
