HC Deb 16 June 1936 vol 313 c781
4. Mr. SHORT

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether the claims against the Hearts of Oak Assurance Company, Limited, which is in liquidation, have now been settled; and, if not, when will the liquidator be in a position to settle?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

Practically all the claims against the company have now been dealt with, and I understand that the liquidator hopes to declare a dividend at an early date.
