§ Mr. A. M. SAMUELasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any settlement between the British and Hungarian clearing houses has been arrived at with regard to certain British claims for the period between July, 1919, and the date of the coming into force of the Treaty of Trianon in 1921; and, if there has been no settlement, will he ascertain and state the arrangements made for the Anglo-Hungarian Mixed Arbitral Tribunal to deal with individual undecided cases for that period, so as to bring the disagreement to a solution?
Mr. WEBBI have been asked to reply. A test case is being brought by the British Clearing Office before the Tribunal by arrangement with the Hungarian Government, which has undertaken to accept the decision therein as finally determining the question of principle at issue and to apply it to all outstanding cases of a similar nature.
