HC Deb 12 July 1877 vol 235 c1178
MR. REPTON

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, If any alteration has been made by the French Government in the rule which compels a British subject to show a passport on entering France from Italy?

MR. BOURKE

The Foreign Office are not in possession of any information showing that any alteration has been made by the French Government in the matter of passports as concerns British subjects. The production of passports by British subjects entering France is not required by the French Government, and the Foreign Office have no official knowledge that they are required from such British subjects entering France from Italy.
