§ Mr. Parkerasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that the list of German-controlled foreign banks on the black list with which trade is forbidden is far from complete; and whether he will revise it?
§ Mr. StanleyI presume the hon. Member is referring to the list of specified persons in the Trading with the Enemy (Specified Persons) Order published on 13th September and in the Amendment Order published on 5th October. Further additions to the list will be made very shortly. Enemy-controlled banks are, of course, enemies within the meaning of the Trading with the Enemy Act, irrespective of whether they have been specified in such Orders.
