HC Deb 04 November 1929 vol 231 c632W
Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has received a proposal to place the Suez Canal under the control of the League of Nations; and, if so, what was the nature of his reply thereto?

Mr. HENDERSON

No such proposal has been received by His Majesty's Government from any other Government, or from the League of Nations itself. I may, however, refer the hon. Member to the answer which I gave to the hon. Member for Wolverhampton, East (Mr. Mander) in a question addressed to me on the 17th of July last.
