Excerpt from Mandates: Report of Sub-Committee Vi (C)
The sub-committee has held five meetings and has arrived at the following conclusions.
There was considerable difference of opinion amongst the members of the Committee as to the proper construction to be placed upon the penultimate paragraph of Article 22. Some of them held that this paragraph gave to the Assembly the first right of dealing with Mandats. Others went even turther, and considered that the League was entitled to settle what countries should be manda tories. Others, again, held that it was the intention of this par'agraph to give to the Council the exclusive right of settling the terms of the mandates unless they had been settled by the Allied and Associated Powers. The Sub Committee decided not to enter into any of these questions. They took as a basis of their consideration of the subject the fact that the question of Mandates was already in the hands of the Council, and in the interests of orderly administration they did not feel that it would be desirable to attempt to take it out of their hands At the same time, they desire to suggest that the whole question of the position and powers of the League in regard to Mandates and the relations of the Council and the Assembly in this respect should be a matter of consideration and possibly for further action by the Assembly at some future date.
The matter actually considered by the sub-committee therefore divides itself into two parts: the Mandate Commission andthe Mandates themselves.
