HC Deb 03 June 1946 vol 423 c1609
51. Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster whether he has any further information as to the purpose for which the former Nazi concentration camps at Sachsenhausen and Buchenwald are at present being used.

Mr. J. Hynd

I am grateful for this opportunity of correcting the statement made in my reply of 27th March, to the hon. Member that these camps were in the American zone. In fact, they were in the Russian zone. I have had inquiries made, and am informed that these concentration camps no longer exist, although the buildings are being used by the Soviet authorities to house war criminals.
