70. Commander BELLAIRS

asked the-Under-Secretary of State for War, in the event of it being undesirable to give the number of spies convicted in the United Kingdom since the outbreak of war according to nationality, whether he will state the percentage that were of neutral nationality, of British nationality, and of enemy nationality; and, in the last case, whether they came over with neutral, forged neutral, or stolen neutral passports?

Mr. TENNANT

It is considered undesirable to give the information for which the hon. and gallant Gentleman asks.
