HC Deb 29 April 1919 vol 115 c32W
Lieutenant-Commander KEN WORTHY

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will favourably consider the insertion of provisions in the Aliens Restriction Bill for the exclusion of aliens from serving in British merchant ships?

Mr. SHORTT

I regret that I am not prepared to make a statement on the important issue of general policy raised by the question of the hon. and gallant Member. It is one which may properly be raised in connection with the Aliens Restriction Bill.
