HC Deb 26 February 1931 vol 248 cc2300-1W
Mr. BARR

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the petition presented to the League of Nations by three Macedonians on 14th January, 1930, and examined by the Committee of Three in May, 1930, has been circulated to members of the Council, including His Majesty's Government; and what is the present position with regard to this petition?

Mr. DALTON

This petition was circulated to all the members of the Council in May, 1930, in accordance with the usual practice, and His Majesty's Government were represented on the Committee of Three, which examined it. After careful investigation, the com- mittee decided that the petition could not properly be brought before the Council.
