§ Captain Pluggeasked the Prime Minister whether he will consider the desirability of calling a conference of interested European countries to consider the most practical methods of dealing with the long-standing grievances of the Hungarian minorities in the countries surrounding Hungary, with a view to removing a cause of unrest which, under present circumstances, may have serious repercussions upon the peace of Europe?
§ Mr. ButlerAs the House is aware, His Majesty's Government take an interest in all matters relating to minorities whose position is governed by treaties to which His Majesty's Government are a party. I am, however, not satisfied that in the present circumstances a conference on the lines contemplated by the hon. and gallant Member would be the best means of achieving the end which he has in view.
