§ Mr. Stokesasked the Secretary of State for War on whose instructions the camp commandant at the prisoner-of-war camp Llanover Park, Abergavenny, has decreed that no more parcels arriving in the camp addressed to prisoners will be delivered; and if he will have this order immediately reversed.
§ Mr. BellengerThe Commandant at the camp in question, in refusing parcels addressed from this country to prisoners 453W of war, was acting correctly in accordance with existing instructions. Following the relaxation of restrictions on contact with the public which I announced recently, I have now decided that prisoners of war may receive parcels from relatives and friends in the United Kingdom. Instructions are also being issued that prisoners of war may write to, and receive letters from, members of the British public.
