HC Deb 27 July 1933 vol 280 cc2798-9W
Mr. DORAN

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will make inquiries as to the reason for the detention by the French authorities in Abbeville of Messrs. Mabbot, Davidson and King, of Tottenham; and why these men were led through the streets of Abbeville chained together and then made to walk 25 miles back to their boat?

Mr. EDEN

My attention has already been drawn to this case, and a report on the incident has been asked for. As soon as this is received, I will communicate with my hon. Friend.
