HC Deb 16 December 1921 vol 149 c294W
Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Prime Minister whether this House will be consulted before any decision to cancel the debts owing to us by the French or other Allied Governments, so that the conditions of such cancellation may be subject to discussion and approval?

The PRIME MINISTER

The question is entirely hypothetical, but I can assure the hon. and gallant Member that, should it become of practical importance, a full opportunity would be given for Parliamentary discussion and approval of the action of the Executive.
