§ Major Petherickasked the President of the Board of Trade why the two Trading with the Enemy Regulations, numbered respectively S.R. & O., 1684 and 1685, of 1943, deal in one case with Corsica alone and in the other case with Corsica, Syria and the Lebanon, French Somaliland, Algeria, the French Zone of Morocco and Tunisia; and if he can state the reason for the differentiation between the treatment of Corsica and the other French territories referred to.
§ Mr. DaltonThere is no difference in treatment between Corsica and the other French territories. Order No. 1685 related only to Corsica because a similar Order had already been made for the other territories in July, 1943 (S.R. & O. 822), before Corsica was liberated.
