HC Deb 14 November 1949 vol 469 cc170-1W
65. Mr. Teeling

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs how many German prisoners of war from Western Germany are still held by the Russians, who are known to have been sentenced to terms of imprisonment before the date of their release as prisoners of war became due; and what representations have been made to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics on this matter.

Mr. Mayhew

I have no information as to the numbers of such men. No representations have been made to the Soviet Government.
