HC Deb 23 February 1922 vol 150 cc2107-8
82. Mr. LUNN

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any official Reports showing that the Egyptian Ministry, under Adly Pasha, spent £800,000 in four months on political propaganda; whether the funds of the Egyptian National Delegation under Zaghloul Pasha have been sequestrated; and whether in each case this was done with the concurrence of the British Financial. Adviser in Egypt?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

I have no information as to what sums the late Egyptian Government may have spent on political propaganda. The reply to the second part of the question is in the negative, and the last part of the question does not, therefore, arise.
