HC Deb 19 December 1945 vol 417 c1473W
Mr. Stokes

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the Anglo-French Agreement on the subject of the Levant States provides for the complete evacuation of French troops from the Lebanon.

Mr. Noel-Baker

Yes, Sir. The Agreement provides for the withdrawal of British and French military forces by stages from both the States of the Levant.

Mr. Stokes

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will publish the text of the Anglo-French Agreement on the subject of the Levant States.

Mr. Noel-Baker

The publication of the Anglo-French Agreement about the Levant States is now under consideration, but the date on which it takes place will, of course, have to be agreed with the French Government.
