HC Deb 02 April 1914 vol 60 c1320
3. Mr. AUBREY HERBERT

asked whether the Hellenic Government has carried out its pledges as regards the evacuation of South Albania?

Sir E. GREY

The evacuation of the district in question was, by international agreement, to have been completed by 31st March. It was proceeding up to a few days ago, when the Greek Government suggested to the Powers the advisability of delaying the withdrawal of their troops, in the interests of public order, pending the conclusion of negotiations between the Albanian Government and the provisional Government of Northern Epirus. No reply has, as yet, been returned to this proposal and, at the present moment I am unable to say whether the evacuation has in fact been completed.

4. Mr. AUBREY HERBERT

asked whether regular Greek troops have assisted Komitajis in pillaging Albanian villages?

Sir E. GREY

No such information has reached me.
