HC Deb 12 April 1933 vol 276 c2572
3. Major MILNER

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can give the House any information as to the Englishman, Mr. John Hill, arrested in Barcelona, and the action, if any, by the British Government to protect his interests?

Sir J. SIMON

I have no information about this case but have asked His Majesty's Consul-General at Barcelona to investigate and on receipt of his report I will consider whether any action by His Majesty's Government is necessary.
