Mr. David Adamsasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether, in view of the fact that no restrictions have been placed on further Jewish agricultural settlement on lands already in their possession in Palestine, protection will be afforded to new settlements on the same lines as that afforded to those of long standing?
Mr. M. MacDonaldYes, Sir. The normal arrangements for military protection are extended to all new settlements established with the prior consent of the Government.
