No. 207 NAI DE 2/304/1
David Lloyd George to Arthur Griffith (London)
(Copy)
London, 30 November 1921
Sir,
I enclose a draft of the Treaty which we are prepared to submit for the approval of Parliament. Provisions for protecting the interests of Southern Unionists are not included in this draft, because we understand that you have agreed with their representatives to provide safeguards for the representation of Minorities, especially in the Second Chamber and in respect of education, religious freedom and Church property, etc., not less effective than those afforded by the Government of Ireland Act, 1920, as well as to make provision for the completion of Land Purchase.
D. Lloyd George
