HC Deb 20 June 1916 vol 83 cc40-1W
Mr. BARNES

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that a Chinese seaman named Chung Cok was engaged on the steamer "Danube" on the 22nd May, 1916, as a seaman, and gave his place of residence as 21, Limehouse Causeway, Poplar; and whether he will state if the occupier of 21, Limehouse Causeway, Poplar, is licensed under the London County Council's by-laws to keep seamen lodgers?

Mr. HARCOURT

My right hon. Friend has asked me to answer this question. A Chinese seaman, who gave this address, was engaged on the "Danube" on the 22nd May. The occupier of the house is not licensed. The Board of Trade are in communication with the London County Council in the matter.
