§ Sir HERBERT NIELDasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has completed his inquiries, and is now in a position to say which of our Allies have passed legislation to exclude or regulate the admission of alien enemies to their resepctive countries, and to repatriate those who, whether interned or uninterned, are resident therein; what shortly are the provisions of such legislation, and whether it is the duty of British Embassies to keep the Foreign Office informed from time to time of legislation affecting matters of international character; and, if not, will he see that such a duty is imposed upon them in future?
Mr. DUDLEY WARDReports have been called for from His Majesty's Diplomatic Missions in the Allied countries chiefly concerned, but I fear some time must elapse before replies are received.
