§ Captain Pluggeasked the Prime Minister whether any progress has been made by His Majesty's Government with its proposal to the League of Nations in favour of change in the operation of the rule of unanimity arising under Article 11?
§ Mr. ButlerAs my hon. and gallant Friend is aware, the Committee set up by the 1936 Assembly of the League to study the application of the principles of the Covenant held a meeting early this year and decided to report progress to the next Assembly. The proposal referred to by my hon. and gallant Friend will doubtless be taken into consideration by the Assembly together with all other aspects of the problem.
