HC Deb 23 June 1924 vol 175 c13
20. Sir FREDRIC WISE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, seeing that the expenditure of the Turkish Government exceeds the revenue, the British Government will protest the bondholders under the Decree of Muharran and also recognise their rights under the Decree?

Sir F. WISE
