§ Mr. Parkerasked the Home Secretary what precautions were taken for the safety of Miss Unity Mitford on her return to this country; what was the reason for this action; and what was the total cost?
§ Mr. PeakeAs was shown by the reply given by the Secretary of State for War, no special precautions were taken for the safety of this passenger. The only precautions were the ordinary precautions to, prevent the entry of unauthorised persons to a place to which access has been controlled under the Defence Regulations, since the outbreak of war. So far as my Department was concerned, Miss Mitford was examined in the same way as other passengers entering the country, but as is frequently done in the case of an invalid, the examination took place in her cabin.
