HC Deb 17 November 1938 vol 341 c1073W
Mr. Benjamin Smith

asked the Prime Minister whether he can give particulars of any compensation payments made to British shipowners for the damage and destruction of their vessels resulting from deliberate attack in Spanish waters?

Mr. Butler

There have been no such payments. This question, which has been discussed with the interests concerned, has been made the subject of an approach to the Burgos authorities.
