HC Deb 03 July 1919 vol 117 cc1188-9W
Mr. PENNEFATHER

asked the Secretary of State for War if he will state how many British subjects have been permitted to enter for business purposes the areas in Germany under British occupation, and how many French, American, and Belgian subjects have been permitted to enter these areas for the same purposes?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Dating from the 12th April, 1,068 passes have been issued to applicants to proceed to territory occupied by the British in Germany. The numbers of French, Belgian and American subjects included are not available at present, but the military authorities in Cologne have been asked for the figures and I will let my hon. Friend have them as soon as possible.
