Captain J. Crowder

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many naturalisation certificates have been revoked since the war.

Mr. Ede

Three certificates of naturalisation have been revoked since the cessation of hostilities.

Captain J. Crowder

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what record is kept of naturalised persons convicted of fraud and other serious offences.

Mr. Ede

No special record is kept, but the police have been asked to report to me any serious offences committed by naturalised persons which might render their naturalisation liable to revocation under section 7 of the British Nationality and Status of Aliens Act, 1914.
