§ 70. Commander BELLAIRSasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether there are strict Regulations against presents of food, drink, or tobacco being given by citizens of this country to Germans interned or imprisoned in this country; if so, whether these Regulations have been in existence since the beginning of the War; and whether any cases of such presents having been conveyed to Germans are known to the Home Office, together with the names of the donors?
§ The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. Brace)Strict regulations as regards 1440 the introduction of intoxicating liquor into internment camps under Home Office control have always been in force, and from time to time, as articles of food and tobacco have come to be rationed for the general population, regulations have been made fixing the allowances for the camps and forbidding their being introduced from this country in excess of the allowances. I have no knowledge of any cases of the kind indicated in the last paragraph of the question.
