Bank of England Directors Debate on Payments in Specie
In a discussion linked to the Bank's restriction on specie payments, Mr Pitt's letter to the Governor and Deputy Governor is read, proposing a longer Bill to suspend specie payments unless altered. The Court of Directors favors a clause to allow limited specie payments, and details of government debt repayments from various loans are outlined. A member asks about future ministerial loan applications, and a plan to increase directors' salaries is hinted at before adjournment.
