HC Deb 04 March 1915 vol 70 c975
4. Lord ROBERT CECIL

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can give any information as to the British subjects in Germany who will be the subject of release or exchange either as incapacitated military prisoners or doctors?

Sir H. VERNEY

No information is yet available as to the numbers or names of the next batch of British incapacitated military prisoners who will be released, nor have His Majesty's Government any information as to the precise numbers and names of British military doctors whose release it is hoped to effect under the terms of the Geneva Convention. It is believed that all British civilian doctors have been released under the agreement with Germany, as no British civilian doctor has latterly appealed to us to negotiate his release.
