HC Deb 10 March 1926 vol 192 cc2263-4
10. Mr. RILEY

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any communication has been received by His Majesty's Government or by the League of Nations from the Bulgarian Government with a view to obtain a loan to deal with the refugee problem in Bulgaria?

Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSON

The Bulgarian Minister discussed the question of a refugee loan with my right hon. Friend on the 25th February last.

Mr. RILEY

Can the hon. Gentleman say whether sympathetic consideration is being given to the application?

Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSON

All that I should like to say now is that certainly no difficulties will be placed in the way of the loan so long as the security for that loan is approved by the Reparation Commission.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

Is the hon. Gentleman satisfied that the change of Government in Bulgaria means a change in the treatment of the persecuted minority in Bulgaria?

Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSON

I should like notice of that question.
