HC Deb 07 November 1939 vol 353 c52W
Commander Locker-Lampson

asked the Home Secretary how long Dr. Julius Laufer has been in custody; whether he has been allowed to see his solicitor; and whether he can give an early date for this man's trial?

Sir J. Anderson

This German subject was for security reasons placed in custody on the outbreak of war. I am informed that up to the present he has made no application to see his solicitor, but such an interview would be allowed if he made such a request. The case is one which I have decided to refer to the Advisory Committee, and it will be considered by that committee at an early date.
