HC Deb 20 February 1975 vol 886 c487W
Mr. Loveridge

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what representations have been made by him to the Turkish and Syrian authorities to ask for urgent consideration by them of the question of moneys outstanding due to Mrs. Aida Kidd, a constituent of the hon. Member for Upminster.

Mr. Hattersley

The embassy in Ankara asked the Turkish authorities to arrange payment in some country other than Syria of any moneys due to Mrs. Kidd, and was told that the Turkish Government required formal confirmation from the Syrian Government that Mrs. Kidd is no longer a Syrian national. The embassy in Damascus has asked the Syrians to supply this.
