§ Mr. Adamsasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether his regulations permit a foreigner working in the United Kingdom to send money home to his relatives.
§ Sir S. CrippsYes, a foreigner working temporarily in the United Kingdom who272W wants to send money abroad for any purpose will be able to get permission to send home as much of his earnings as he does not need to meet his living expenses in this country. Any branch of a United Kingdom bank will make the necessary arrangements. Full details of these arrangements are now supplied by the Ministry of Labour to all foreigners who are granted permission to work in the United Kingdom. Bank notes either in sterling or any foreign currency should not be sent abroad through the post except to the Irish Republic or the Channel Islands and any notes so sent are liable to be seized by His Majesty's Customs and not returned.
