HC Deb 27 June 1918 vol 107 c1214
22. Sir R. COOPER

asked the Home Secretary if he will introduce an Amendment to the law regulating the naturalisation of aliens to secure that every alien shall, on receiving his certificate of naturalisation, declare the name by which he will be known, and that it shall be a penal offence for him to use any other during his period of naturalisation?

Mr. BRACE

I will bring the hon. Baronet's suggestion to the notice of my right hon. Friend on his return.

Mr. BILLING

Will the Home Office consider the advisability of making it a criminal offence to change one's name in this country unless it is done by deed-poll?
