§ Mr. BOTTOMLEYasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasury whether he could state in which of the British Colonies or Dominions periodical returns were required by law of all dormant balances and unclaimed securities in the hands of bankers; and whether he would grant a Return showing the value of unclaimed moneys and securities thus disclosed?
§ The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Master of Elibank)Such returns are required by law in several British Colonies. I would suggest that my hon. Friend should move for a Return covering the information desired by his question. It will, however, take some time to prepare.
§ Mr. BOTTOMLEYI understand the Return will be granted?
§ MASTER of ELIBANKYes.
