Parliamentary Question, raised by Lt Col Hare on looted goods from Holland, dated 21 August 1945. Lt Col Hare asked the Secretary of State for War 'how much material and goods removed from Holland by the Germans are being retained in the British zone and is he prepared to give an assurance that adequate measures will be taken to return the possessions to the Dutch people'. Mr Lawson replied that some small measure of restitution had already been made and that it is hoped that an appreciable amount of easily identifiable goods etc, will be returned to the Dutch and other Allies soon.
