HC Deb 06 December 1922 vol 159 c1727
2. Mr. CHARLES BUXTON

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, after the arrest of M. Gounaris, a representative of the British Legation at Athens demanded of the Greek authorities the return of certain documents, said to be the correspondence between M. Gounaris and British Ministers, which had been seized at the house of the former by the Greek police; and whether the British Legation at any time requested the Greek authorities to return, or withhold from the trial of the accused Ministers, communications between them and British Ministers?

Mr. McNEILL

The answer to both parts of this question is in the negative.
