Mr. DALTON

I would refer the hon. Member to my reply to a similar question addressed to my right hon. Friend yesterday by my hon. Friend the Member for Broxtowe (Mr. Cocks).

Mr. MANDER

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs when the case concerning the proposed Austro-German protocol for a customs union is likely to be heard by the Permanent Court of International Justice; and what parties are being represented thereat?

Mr. DALTON

As I stated yesterday in reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Broxtowe (Mr. Cocks), the Permanent Court is meeting on Monday next to consider this case. The Austrian, Czechoslovak, French, German and Italian Governments have announced that they will file written statements and that their representatives will make oral statements.
