Major Legge-Bourkeasked the Minister of Education how the United Kingdom representative at the Eighth General Conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation voted on the Resolution recognising that the results attained by Esperanto corresponded with the aims and ideals of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation; and the policy of Her Majesty's Government in regard to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation's support for Esperanto.
§ Mr. VosperThe United Kingdom delegate voted for this Resolution, having first successfully proposed the deletion of a recommendation that Member States of U.N.E.S.C.O. should encourage the teaching and use of Esperanto.
