HC Deb 13 February 1922 vol 150 cc590-1
66. Mr. RAWLINSON

asked the Prime Minister whether beneficiaries having funds in the hands of the Public Trustee in Ireland will have an opportunity of transferring their property to the Public Trustee in London before the responsibility of the British Government for such funds comes to an end?

Mr. YOUNG

The position of funds now in the hands of the Public Trustee in Ireland is under consideration, and in whatever arrangements may eventually be made careful attention will be given to the full protection of the interests of beneficiaries concerned.

Mr. RAWLINSON

When is the decision likely to be arrived at?

Mr. YOUNG

I find it difficult to name a precise date at the present moment. The consideration is actually proceeding, and whatever precautions are taken will be taken in ample time.
