§ 14. Mr. Ernest Daviesasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he has yet received the report from the arbitrator in connection with claims to gold looted by the Germans from Rome.
§ Mr. Selwyn LloydYes, Sir. The arbitrator's award was pronounced on 20th February. The arbitrator found that the gold in question was the property of the National Bank of Albania.
§ Mr. DaviesWhile welcoming the fact that the arbitrator has made this decision, even though it is belated, may I ask if this means that it is a step towards the settlement of the Corfu Channel incident and this gold will now come to Britain?
