HC Deb 27 June 1949 vol 466 cc57-8W
Major Beamish

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has now had time to study the report of the United Nations Acting Mediator on the subject of the five Royal Air Force aircraft which were attacked and shot down by Israeli fighters over Egypt on 7th January, 1949; what compensation he is claiming from the State of Israel; and what other action he is taking.

Mr. Mayhew

The matter is under further discussion with the Acting Mediator. I have nothing I can usefully add at this stage.
