Saumarez and Volage Crews' Compensation

EDM number 452 in 1989-90, proposed by Frank Cook on 06/02/1990.

That this House calls upon the Government, before it hands back to Albania gold captured from the Nazis in the Second World War, to ensure that Albania has paid at today's value the full compensation, awarded by the International Court of Justice, to the dependants of the ship's companies who died and to the horrendously injured survivors of the destroyers 'Saumarez' and 'Volage' which sustained major damage from Albanian mines laid wantonly after the cessation of hostilities at the end of the 1939-1945 war.

This motion has been signed by a total of 24 MPs.
