HC Deb 18 April 1907 vol 172 c1138
MR. BOWLES (Lambeth, Norwood)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has now received any information showing that a concession of the deposits of mineral oil in Mesopotamia has been granted by the Porte to the poisons representing the Anatolian Railway; and whether this concession is still in force.

SIR EDWARD GREY

Information has been asked for from His Majesty's Embassy at Constantinople, but not yet received.
