The Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry was a joint British and American attempt in 1946 to agree upon a policy as regards the admission of Jews to Palestine. The Committee was tasked to consult representative Arabs and Jews on the problems of Palestine, and to make other recommendations `as may be necessary` to the British and American governments. The Committee`s recommendations addressed the matter of immigration and the future government of Palestine.
