HC Deb 16 April 1948 vol 449 c98W
Sir A. Salter

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the net amount of gold and other assets that have been released to the Polish Government under the terms of the Financial Agreement of 1946; and whether, apart from that agreement, the Polish Government have made any payment to this country on account of financial indebtedness or of British claims in respect of industries and other property nationalised in Poland.

Sir S. Cripps

I cannot disclose information about the amount of gold and other assets in the United Kingdom belonging to another country. Apart from the payment made under Article III of the Financial Agreement of 24th June, 1946, the Polish Government have not, so far as I am aware, made any payments to this country on account of prewar or war-time financial indebtedness or British claims in respect of industries and other property nationalised in Poland.
