- Scope & Content:
-
This item consists of part one of the subject file 4613/1919 Iraq: Land Tenure. It concerns British land policy in the occupied territories of Mesopotamia [Iraq] and particularly relates to the sale, leasing or granting of land to persons other than domiciled inhabitants of the territories (e.g. British, British Indian, and European subjects). The part mostly consists of correspondence but also includes notifications, minutes and proclamations, including a copy of the Land Settlement Proclamation (1920). The notifications relate to restrictions imposed by the British on the alienation of immoveable property within the occupied territories to persons other than Arabs of the occupied territories.
The principal correspondents are the Acting Civil Commissioner, Baghdad, (Lieutenant-Colonel Arnold Talbot Wilson), the Secretary of State for India (Edwin Samuel Montagu), and officials of the India Office and the Foreign Office.
