§ MR. BAILLIE COCHRANEasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether the sums due by the Greek Government for pensions and compensations for British subjects on the cession of the Ionian Islands to the Crown of Greece, have been paid over 843 to Her Majesty's Minister in Athens in terms of the Treaty of 29th March 1864?
§ VISCOUNT ENFIELDSir, by the Convention between Her Majesty and the King of the Hellenes of March 29, 1864, for the cession of the Ionian Islands, it was agreed that the several pensions and allowances payable by the Government of Greece should be paid ten days before the expiration of each half-year. It appears that the pensions under Schedule B for the half-year ending June 30 were accordingly paid to Mr. Stuart on the 15th of June. A complaint having been made by a gentleman in this country of the non-receipt of his pension, Mr. Stuart has been directed to inquire into the cause.
