§ 57. Mr. Liddallasked the Home Secretary whether he can make a statement 1042 upon the general working of the aliens tribunals in regard to the discretion being exercised to allow persons to be aided at the hearings; and whether he is satisfied that no unnecessary refusals are taking place?
§ Sir J. AndersonAccording to my information the tribunals are making full use of their discretion to allow aliens to be accompanied by some friend or witness who can give information which is likely to assist the tribunal. If my hon. Friend wishes to make representations about any particular case or cases, I shall be obliged if he will send me particulars.
§ Mr. T. WilliamsAre legal representatives permitted at these tribunals?
§ Sir J. AndersonNo, Sir.
