HC Deb 18 November 1930 vol 245 c271W
Mr. MANDER

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the British Government have accepted the obligations of a special guarantor under the Convention on Financial Assistance approved by the Eleventh Assembly of the League of Nations in September; and, if not, whether it is proposed to do so?

Mr. A. HENDERSON

His Majesty's Government have signed the Convention but have not yet accepted any obligation as a special guarantor. No decision on this question will he taken without first ascertaining the intentions of the other permanent Members of the Council of the League of Nations.
