HC Deb 24 January 1949 vol 460 cc75-6W
54. Mr. Philips Price

asked the Lord President of the Council if he will now make any further statement about the arrangements for representation at the United Nations Scientific Conference on the conservation and utilisation of resources to take place next May; and whether any decisions have yet been taken as to who in Great Britain will be asked to contribute papers or attend as observers or participants.

Mr. H. Morrison

The selection of representatives either as participants or as observers is still proceeding and names will be announced as soon as firm arrangements have been made. The Secretary-General of the United Nations, with the advice of the United Kingdom authorities, has invited some 60 United Kingdom specialists to contribute papers.
