HC Deb 29 June 1949 vol 466 c1266
10. Professor Savory

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is now in a position to make a statement on the offer of the Royal Danish Government to defray the expenses of the transfer of German refugees in South Schleswig to other zones of Germany.

Mr. Bevin

I have no knowledge of such an offer.

Professor Savory

Is not the right hon. Gentleman aware that the Royal Danish Government have offered to provide transport, food and transit camps, and that they are awaiting a reply by His Majesty's Government, their desire being to reduce the excessive number of refugees, which in several cases exceeds the native population?

Mr. Bevin

I assure the hon. Gentleman that I have received no such offer.
