HC Deb 31 October 1916 vol 86 c1542
129. Sir R. COOPER

asked the President of the Board of Trade what action he proposes to take on the representations made to him by the Employers' Parliamentary Association respecting the safeguarding of British creditors of enemy aliens on the termination of the War?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

The representations have not been overlooked, but any announcement as to the steps to be taken in the matter on the termination of the War would at present be premature.
