HC Deb 23 July 1923 vol 167 cc45-6W
Mr. A. M. SAMUEL

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department whether he is aware that no written confirmation has yet been received from M. Bratiano and/or His Excellency M. N. Titutesco respecting the arrangement about the trade debts due to British firms from Rumanian debtors; and will he request official confirmation from the Rumanian authorities responsible for the arrangements?

Lieut.-Colonel BUCKLEY

I understand that the representatives of the British creditors who have been discussing this question with M. Bratiano, have received asurances on the subject through the Rumanian Legation, and His Majesty's Minister at Bucharest has been instructed to obtain formal confirmation from the Rumanian Government.
