HC Deb 15 March 1934 vol 287 c591W
Mr. MANDER

asked the Minister of Labour whether he has yet received from the Council of the League of Nations the draft convention with regard to assistance to indigent foreigners, together with the 14 recommendations of the committee; and, if so, what action is being taken in connection therewith?

Mr. EDEN: I have been

asked to reply to this question. The Secretary-General of the League of Nations wrote to the Foreign Office on the 14th February, enclosing a copy of the draft convention and of the 14 recommendations of the committee, and asked for observations by the 1st July. The Secretary-General's letter is now receiving the consideration of His Majesty's Government.
