HC Deb 01 August 1918 vol 109 c610
64. Mr. JOYNSON-HICKS

asked the Home Secretary what instructions he issued to the Aliens Advisory Committee recently reconstituted by him to deal with the internment of enemy aliens?

Sir G. CAVE

The terms of reference to the Committee are as follows: To examine the cases of enemy aliens who have hitherto been exempted from internment or repatriation, and to report in each case whether they recommend that the exemption should be withdrawn with a view to the internment or repatriation of the person concerned, or whether they recommend that the exemption should be continued, and, if so, on what grounds. No other instructions have been given.
