HC Deb 18 April 1921 vol 140 c1545W
Mr. RAPER

asked the Prime Minister whether the Tsar, Duma, and Russian Soviet rouble notes held by His Majesty's subjects constitute a part of Russia's external obligations, and, if so, on what exchange basis expressed in English currency?

Lieut.-Commander YOUNG

Rouble notes which do not carry any obligation for their payment in foreign currency clearly do not form part of Russia's external obligations.
