Foreign Compensation (USSR) (Registration and Determination of Claims) Order 1986

HC Deb 21 July 1987 vol 120 cc142-3W 143W

§ Mr. William Powell
asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the response to the advertisement about the Foreign Compensation (USSR) (Registration and Determination of Claims) Order 1986.

§ Mr. Eggar
The closing date for claims in respect of bonds was 31 March 1987. The total number of bonds received was 849,863, with a face value of £30,229,474. The closing date for claims other than bonds was 30 June 1987. At that date some 1,850 claims had been received by the Foreign Compensation Commission. It will be some time before an estimated value can be placed on these other claims.
