HC Deb 30 March 1922 vol 152 cc1559-60W
Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

asked the Prime Minister whether he will consider the desirability of asking the Australian Government to provide a quota of Australian troops in the future Allied garrison to be retained in the Gallipoli Peninsula under the proposed revised Treaty of Peace with Turkey?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

His Majesty's Government fully recognise the special interest of Australia, and, I may add, of New Zealand, in the Gallipoli Peninsula, but it would be premature to consider detailed arrangements until the proposed Treaty has been signed and ratified.
