HC Deb 28 March 1927 vol 204 cc885-6W
Mr. BUXTON

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs (1) whether a reply to the Note of the Italian Government on the question of alleged military activities on the Albanian frontier has been sent by His Majesty's Government; and, if so, whether he can indicate the nature of the reply;

(2) what is the attitude of His Majesty's Government with regard to the proposal that the military attaches of the various Powers represented in Belgrade should investigate the charges made by the Italian Government against the Yugoslavian military authorities?

Sir A. CHAMBERLAIN

I am in communication with the Governments concerned, but no definite decision has yet been taken.

Mr. BUXTON

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what is the attitude of His Majesty's Government with regard to the obligation incurred under Article X of the covenant respecting the independence and integrity of Albania?

Sir A. CHAMBERLAIN

As no threat to the independence and integrity of Albania has materialised, the question of the obligations of His Majesty's Government under Article X of the covenant does not arise.

Mr. RILEY

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if any correspondence or negotiations have taken place during the past six months between representatives of the Greek Government and His Majesty's Government regarding the future relations between the Governments of Greece, Yugoslavia, and Albania; and, if so, what is the nature of such correspondence or negotiations?

Sir A. CHAMBERLAIN

There have been no correspondence or negotiations between the Greek and British Governments on this subject.
