HC Deb 28 June 1910 vol 18 cc913-4W
Mr. WATT

asked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been called to the case of Julius Louis Zetland, who was on 24th November last charged with resetting before the sheriff substitute at Glasgow and sentenced to eight months' imprisonment and deportation to his native country; whether, with reference to the deportation part of the sentence, he is aware that Zetland has been resident in this country for eighteen years without previous complaint against him; that a memorial in his favour has been signed by twenty respectable traders of Glasgow who have for years done business with him; and that the articles found in his possession when apprehended could quite reasonably have been in his possession in the way of his trade; and whether, in these circumstances, he can see his way to remit the sentence of deportation?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Yes, Sir, my attention has been called to the case referred to, and, on consideration of all the circumstances, I have decided not to make an Expulsion Order.
