HC Deb 16 April 1883 vol 278 c316
MR. BOURKE

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, What progress has been made towards giving effect to the Treaty of Berlin with respect to the annual tribute of Bulgaria, and the portion of the public debt of Turkey assigned to Bulgaria, Montenegro, and Servia; and, what portion of the public debt is to be assigned to Greece?

LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICE

Sir, Her Majesty's Government have been in consultation with the other signatory Powers with a view to an early settlement of these questions, which are now being dealt with by the Ambassadors at Constantinople; but no agreement has yet been arrived at. The question will continue to engage the serious attention of Her Majesty's Government.

MR. BOURKE

gave Notice that he would call attention to the subject on going into Committee of Supply.
