§ Sir R. Russellasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what consideration he has given to the Treaty of 346W Lausanne of 1923, which laid down the boundaries of Iraq, Syria and the Lebanon and the United Nations resolution of 1948 which delimited the frontiers of the former mandated territories of Palestine and Transjordan, in his attempts to secure a settlement of the present dispute between Israel and her neighbours.
§ Mr. Goronwy RobertsThe Treaty of Lausanne of 24th July, 1923, did not in fact lay down the boundaries of Iraq, Syria and the Lebanon; nor was there a United Nations Resolution in 1948 delimiting the frontiers of the former mandated territories of Palestine and Transjordan. The hon. Member's Question does not therefore arise.
