§ 4. Sir K. WOODasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he is now in a position to make a statement in relation to the confiscation of British travellers' money under the currency regulations introduced by the Russian Government in March last?
§ Mr. DALTONNo, Sir; but my right hon. Friend has made further inquiries of His Majesty's Ambassador at Moscow on this subject.
§ Sir K. WOODWhat is the reason for the delay in dealing with this matter?
§ Mr. DALTONI do not think that there has been any undue delay, but we have inquired again from our Ambassador as to the reply of the Soviet Government to his representations.
§ Sir K. WOODWhen will the hon. Gentleman be in a position to answer this question?
