HC Deb 05 May 1948 vol 450 c139W
84. Mr. Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is aware that members of the Arab League, including Transjordan, have declared that they will invade Palestine; that preparations for this purpose are in progress; and what steps he is taking in the matter.

Mr. Bevin

My attention has been drawn to reports to this effect. I have very seriously warned the Governments concerned against taking any action which would risk bringing them into conflict with the Mandatory Power.
