HC Deb 10 March 1959 vol 601 cc1074-5
20. Sir J. Lucas

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if in view of the amnesty given to all internees and others in Cyprus, he will consult the Archbishop Makarios with a view to securing that the families who were excommunicated for supporting the British authorities should be readmitted to the Church.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

I have no information that Cypriot families were in fact excommunicated for supporting the British authorities, but I have referred this question to the Governor for further inquiry.
