HC Deb 05 May 1930 vol 238 c622
54. Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs the names of the British representatives on the Straits Commission, their emoluments as commissioners, the situation of the administrative offices of the commission, and the occasions on which it met during the years 1929 and 1930?

Mr. A. HENDERSON

There is only one British representative on the Straits Commission, Captain Malcolm MacDonald, R.N. His salary and emoluments amount to a sum of £1,422 a year. The Report of the Commission for 1929, a copy of which I am sending to the hon. Member, shows that the meetings were held throughout that year at Constantinople. I have no information as to the exact number of meetings.
