§ Mr. DAYasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has received any reports with reference to the condition of affairs on the frontier between Iraq and Nejd; and whether any recent raids have taken place by either Trans-Jordan or Nejd tribesmen?
§ Dr. SHIELSNo special reports have recently been received about the situation on the frontier between Iraq and Nejd which has been normal since the early part of this year. The answer to the second part of the question is in the affirmative, but, so far as I am aware, none of the raids that have recently taken place was of a serious character.
