HC Deb 20 May 1946 vol 423 c22W
123. Mr. Dodds-Parker

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affair whether any appeal has been made by His Majesty's Government to the Emperor of Ethiopia to see what action he is prepared to take to receive Jewish refugees

Mr. McNeil

No, Sir. The future of Jewish refugees, as indeed that of all refugees, is being discussed by the Refugee Committee of the United Nations at present in session. Any appeal to Governments of countries of reception to admit refugees for resettlement will fall to be made by whatever international organisation is set up as a result of these discussions, to deal with the refugee problem as a whole.
