§ 24. Mr. Manderasked the Secretary of State for War to what extent the arrangements for separating Austrian from German prisoners of war have now been carried out; and whether they are kept in separate prison camps.
§ Sir J. GriggThe separation of prisoners of war of Austrian nationality from German prisoners of war held by the Government of the United Kingdom has now been carried out as far as possible. Their segregation is absolute, that is they have no contact at all with one another, but they are not necessarily in separate camps.
§ Mr. ManderCan the right hon. Gentleman say whether this applies in all parts of the world wherever they may be?
§ Sir J. GriggI would rather like to have notice of that question, because my answer applies to prisoners held by the Government of the United Kingdom in this country. If my hon. Friend wants to know what is done elsewhere, perhaps he will give me an opportunity of considering it.
