HC Deb 18 November 1936 vol 317 cc1805-6W
Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Minister for the Co-ordination of Defence whether Palestine will now take the place of Egypt in our system of defence; and is the Government doing anything to strengthen the pro-British section of the population of that country

Sir T. INSKIP

Our system of defence has not been weakened under the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty. The second part of the question does not therefore arise.
