§ Sir R. Rossasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is aware that Senor Don Louis de Olivares y Brugueva, at a reception given in his honour by Mr. de Valera on 23rd August, described himself as accredited to Ireland; and whether he will make it clear to the Spanish Government that their representative is not accredited to Northern Ireland.
§ Mr. BevinI have no information to confirm the first part of the Question. In any case, I do not consider it necessary 245W to make a communication on the subject to the Spanish Government, since they are, I am sure, fully aware of the relevant distinction.
