HC Deb 02 November 1944 vol 404 cc947-8
35. Mr. Arthur Duckworth

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what reports he has received of serious food shortage in the Channel Islands; and whether he has any statement to make about the conditions under which British subjects are living in these islands.

40. Mr. Graham White

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he is in a position to make a statement on conditions in the Channel Islands.

Mr. H. Morrison

Information about conditions in the Channel Islands reaches His Majesty's Government from various sources, but I am not in a position to make any statement except to say that carefully considered plans have been made by the Government for sending to the Channel Islands supplies including food, fuel and medical supplies and that they are ready for despatch.
