§ Mr. Craven-Ellisasked the President of the Board of Trade whether the cost of replacing deeds of property which have 494W been lost through enemy action, and upon which stamp duty has been paid, must fall upon the property owner; and whether the cost of replacement of deeds, duly stamped, will be allowed as part of the war damage claim?
§ Captain WaterhouseDeeds of property are not insurable under the War Damage Act as they are specifically excluded from the definition of "goods" in Section 95 of the Act. No claim can, therefore, be made for their loss by enemy action.
