§ 61. Mr. G. Straussasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department on what dates during 1937 and 1938 permission to enter this country was given to Herr Richard W. A. Behn, of 10, Adolphsboucher, Hamburg; what were the objects for which permission was sought; and why permission to land was recently refused?
§ The Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department (Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd)This man was given leave to land on five 350 occasions last year, the stated purpose of his visits being legal business. On 12th March leave to land was refused as a result of further inquiries into his activities. He is known to be connected with the industrial firm to which I referred in reply to a question which the hon. Member put to me yesterday.
