The link between gold and banknotes

The request was refused by Bank of England.

Dear Bank of England,

As the link between gold and banknotes had been broken in the 1931 gold standard act.

1. What did the receipt ant (public) get for this remedy?

2. Where and what happened to the gold that the receipt ant (public) had in the banks?

Yours faithfully,

Mr Majestic
