Frits Bakker Schut (* 29 January 1903 in Rotterdam; † 1966) was a Dutch civil engineer and a member of the state commission to investigate the annexation question. He became known for his proposal of the Dutch annexation of German territory after the Second World War, which was, however, rejected at the London Six-Power Conference in 1949.
Life
Bakker Schut was born in Rotterdam as the son of Pieter Bakker Schut and his wife Johanna Wilhelmina Julius. After completing his secondary education at the Nederlandsch Lyceum in The Hague, he studied civil engineering at the Delft University of Technology from 1921 to 1927 and graduated with a diploma. He then began working as a civil engineer for the municipal administration of The Hague. Afterwards, he worked for three years in the private sector, first at the concrete works of De Meteoor Beton BV in De Steeg and then at Philips in Eindhoven. From 1931 to 1935 he worked for the municipality of Groningen as an inspector for public housing. In 1933, he earned his doctorate at the Delft University of Technology with a dissertation on industry and housing.[1] In 1935 he moved to the municipal administration of Haarlem. In 1938, he became inspector for public housing for the North Holland province and the northern part of South Holland province. In 1941, Bakker Schut became the first director of the National Bureau for the National Plan. After World War II, he made several proposals for the Dutch annexation of German territory after the Second World War. However, these plans were rejected at the Six-Power Conference in London in 1949. Bakker Schut then resigned from his post and succeeded his father as director of public works in The Hague.[2]
Bakker Schut was the father of Sonja van der Gaast (* 4 November 1928 in Ellecom; † 16 May 2018 in Utrecht), a Dutch politician and peace activist, as well as of Pieter Bakker Schut, a Dutch lawyer who became known in Germany for defending members of the left-wing extremist terrorist organization Red Army Faction.
