§ 52. Commander BELLAIRSasked the Prime Minister whether the Government are in possession of evidence that signalling by lights is still going on from the East Coast; and, if so, whether more stringent measures will be carried out against those who may be suspected of sympathising with our enemies both in regard to places of residence and entry into this country?
§ Mr. TENNANTReports of supposed cases of signalling continue to come in, and to receive, the attention of the responsible authorities. It is not advisable to publish details regarding either the evidence in possession of the Government or the steps being taken in the matter.
