§ Mr. Wedgwoodasked the Home Secretary whether he can give an assurance that the remaining 30 or 40 anti-Nazis in Hayton Camp will not be deported to Canada?
§ Mr. PeakeNo internees have been transferred to Canada since the beginning of July and there is no likehood of any further transfer.
§ Mr. Wedgwoodasked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that 1,100 wives have been waiting in London since 10th July to go to Australia to join their interned husbands; whether there is now any prospect of their leaving this year; and whether, if they go, they will be interned with their husbands, or will both 1721W be permitted to live outside the camp, or will they not be permitted to live together?
§ Mr. PeakeThe number of wives who have been hoping to go to Australia to join their husbands in internment is 212, of whom about 60 are in the women's camp in the Isle of Man. The question whether arrangements can be made by the Australian authorities for their accommodation presents certain difficulties, but my right hon. Friend is in communication with the Australian Government and hopes to make a definite announcement at an early date.
