HC Deb 21 May 1942 vol 380 c392W
Mr. Rhys Davies

asked the Prime Minister whether he will consider, in accordance with the procedure laid down by the League of Nations, the despatch of a neutral observer to the spot to ascertain which, if any, of the belligerent Powers may be using poison gas in the present conflict?

Mr. Attlee

His Majesty's Government are satisfied that the conditions of the conflict make any such procedure quite impracticable in present circumstances.
