Mr. Lipson
asked the Prime Minister when the British Ambassador to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics hopes to be able to return to his post?
Mr. Butler
No date has at present been fixed for the return to Moscow of His Majesty's Ambassador, who is now on leave in this country.
Mr. G. Strauss
Does the Under-Secretary appreciate the necessity of having a representative at Moscow, particularly under present conditions?

Yes, certainly. We have an able representative there, although I would point out that His Majesty's Ambassador is having a long leave.
