4. Mr. RENNIE SMITH

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any British subjects have lodged claims for arrest by the Soviet Government subsequent to the landing at Vladivostok, Murmansk, or Archangel of British naval or military forces; and whether His Majesty's Government intend supporting these claims when a settlement of outstanding questions is being negotiated with the Soviet Government?

The SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Sir Austen Chamberlain)

The answer to both parts of the question is in the affirmative.
