Organizations/movement: Arab Higher Committee. Action: The committee issued a detailed response to the May policy, objecting that it did not secure fundamental Palestinian rights. Result: Britain proposed limits on immigration and land transfers and conditional independence after ten years; the AHC refused the policy. The revolt was subsequently suppressed during 1939. Impact / interpretation: The policy represented limited concessions rather than immediate self-determination. The period ended with a damaged national movement, while its organizations, political arguments and memory influenced later generations.
