§ 2. Mr. GEORGE FABERasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he can state whether a British Controller has been appointed over the Deutsche Orient Bank in Egypt, and, if so, who, and at what date; and whether the bank has been finally wound up and its premises sold?
§ Lord R. CECILMr. R. E. Moore, resident partner in Egypt of the firm of Messrs. Price, Waterhouse and Peat, was appointed Controller in November, 1914. The liquidation of the bank is nearly, if not quite, complete. I understand that the premises have not been sold.
§ Lord R. CECILI am afraid I cannot answer that question offhand, but I should be very glad to show to my hon. Friend a lengthy report on the subject which we have received.
