In order to indicate the origin and { intention of the above thome, the Council
desire to call attention to the following circumstances:
(1). At the Imperial Conference in 1911. the then Prime Miniator of New Zealand advocated the creation of "an Imperial Parliament of Defence, for the purpose of determining Peaco and War, Contributions to Imperial Defence, Foreign Policy so far as it affects the Empire, International Treaties so far as they affect the Empire, and such other Imperial matters as may by agreement be transferred to such Parlia- ment." (Cd. 3745, p. 37). Bome diference of opinion was manifested as to whether | foreign relations would include “commerce,” 2 but the question was not discussed (p. 58). Subsequently the introducer of the pro- oposal, in further explanation, suggested 1 that, assuming "local autonomy fully 15 established, a true Imperial Parialment, 0] which at first could be limited to foreign policies, defence, and peace or war, should be set up, the local governments to have the powers they have note... except with regard to naval defence." (p. 81).
