§ Mr. Warbeyasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will place in the Library of the House of Commons a copy of the agreement recently signed by the Austrian and Italian Governments relating to the revision of the 1939 Hitler-Mussolini agreement on options for citizenship in the case of inhabitants of the South Tyrol.
§ Mr. MayhewI was very glad to learn that agreement had been reached between434W the Italian and Austrian Governments on the optants question. The discussion concerned the draft of a decree to be presented to the Italian Parliament and there can naturally be no question of the publication of the draft here in advance of publication in Italy. I shall be glad to place a copy of the text in the Library as and when it is published, should my hon. Friend so wish.
