§ Mr. LARDNERasked the Undersecretary of State for Foreign Affairs what Regulations or restrictions are in force at the present time affecting American citizens resident in the United Kingdom; and whether the existing Regulations are in any way modified from those in force before the United States came into the War; and, if so, will he state the terms of such modifications?
§ Sir G. CAVEMy right hon. Friend has asked me to reply to this question. The Regulations applying to American citizens under the Aliens' Restriction Order are the same as are in force with regard to all other alien friends, including the French and our other Allies. They are required to register with the police and report any change of residence, and, when staying in hotels, boarding-houses, etc. to register with the keeper thereof, and they must not enter prohibited areas unless they are in possession of an identity book or have obtained the permission of the chief officer of police of the area. The answer to the second part of the question is in the negative
