§ 74. Colonel WEDGWOODasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, seeing that the British Navy has evacuated many Spanish refugees from ports in the hands of the Spanish Government, they have also evacuated any from ports in the hands of the rebels; and do the insurgent forces allow refugees of the Left to leave?
§ The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Viscount Cranborne)I have been asked to reply. The answer to the first part of the right hon. Gentleman's question is "Yes, Sir." As regards the second part, a considerable number of Spanish refugees of the Left have been evacuated from insurgent territory on the north coast, as the result of the exchange scheme arranged by Dr. Junod of the International Red Cross.
§ Colonel WEDGWOODIs it possible to evacuate any of the Rio Tinto miners, or people in La Linea?
§ Viscount CRANBORNEI should like notice of that question.
