Consul was instructed to difirncc
discuss the matter in a personal and
unofficial manner with the League High Commissioner.
0. These instructions, however, were too late to enable
any attemot to be made to modify the regulations. v,hen these
were issued (paragraph 7 above), the Admiralty desired that
a protest should be made. There was some difference of oninion
in the Foreign Office whether our position in regard to the right
of innocent passage would he affected by failure to make a protest,
but it was finally decided that a protest should be made.
In accordance with instructions. His Majesty’s Representative at
’'arssv; addressed a note (1st August, 1953) to the Polish
Government in which it was stated that His Majesty’s Government
do not recognise the right of a country to prohibit the innocent
passage of any vessels, including war vessels, through territorial
waters and that consequently they were unt b^e to accent in its
entirety the document communicated to the Secretary-General of the
League of Nations containing the Danzig regulations on the matter.
The Polish Government have not yet submitted their views
in answer to this protest.
