HC Deb 26 April 1923 vol 163 cc669-70
61. Major Sir BERTRAM FALLE

asked the Home Secretary if he is aware that the Lieutenant-Governor of Jersey is paying an official visit to the Lieutenant-Governor of Guernsey, and is taking his staff with him; who pays the expenses of this visit, and where does the necessity or advantage of such visit arise?

Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSON

My right hon. Friend is aware of the proposed visit, which follows a similar visit to Jersey by the Lieutenant-Governor of Guernsey some 18 months ago. He considers that such visits desirable as helping to co-ordinate the interests of the islands. No expense to the British Exchequer is involved.
