§ 11. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether General Baron Wrangel and his chief of staff were officially received and entertained to dinner on board His Majesty's Ship "Ramillies" on 19th August last; whether members of the late British military mission to Baron Wrangel were present; and whether this is in accordance with the declared policy of His Majesty's Government?
§ Sir J. CRAIGThere is no information at the Admiralty concerning this matter.
§ Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYI gave notice of this question last week. May I ask whether inquiries were made, and can the hon. Gentleman state, if the facts as stated in the question are correct, whether it is not contrary to the policy of His Majesty's Government?
§ Lieut.-Colonel Sir J. NORTON-GRIFFITHSIs there any reason why they should not be?
§ Sir J. CRAIGWe have no information about it.
§ Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYMay I ask the hon. Gentleman whether he did make the inquiry when I put the question down a long time ago? I gave very long notice. Will the hon. Gentleman be able to get the information if I repeat the question?
§ Sir J. CRAIGCertainly. Everything will be done to meet a question put on the Paper; but since it was put down no information has reached the Admiralty.
