§ Colonel WEDGWOODasked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs why Miss Evelyn Sharp's request for a permit to visit Poland, for the purpose of doing relief work under the auspices of the Society of Friends, was refused, no reason for the refusal being given; and why her further application for a passport to visit Germany for a similar purpose under the same auspices has not yet been granted, though it was made nearly three weeks ago?

Mr. HARMSWORTHThe applications in question have been under consideration by the Home Office and the Foreign Office, and have now been granted. The whole question of the issue of passports will be discussed by a special Home Office Committee, which will meet shortly.
