The Passfield White Paper came out of the Hope-Simpson Commission's investigation into the deeper causes of the Wailing Wall disturbances of 1929. The paper backtracked from the Balfour Declaration and, if implemented, would have limited Jewish immigration to Palestine. However, Zionists mounted a campaign against the document, which led to Ramsay MacDonald's disavowal of the white paper in front of the British House of Commons.
