– in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 5 March 1947.
Mrs. Manning:
asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will make a statement on the subject of the Polish note on the Polish Resettlement Bill.
Mr Christopher Mayhew
, Norfolk Southern
No, Sir. The Note was received on the 3rd March and is still under consideration.
Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
