HC Deb 07 October 1941 vol 374 c863W
Mr. Creech Jones

asked the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies whether Mr. W. A. Domingo has been discharged from detention; and what steps have been taken to this end?

Mr. George Hall

No, Sir. Mr. Domingo was detained as evidence showed that he had been engaged in defeatist and anti-war propaganda including propaganda designed to stimulate opposition on racial grounds to the establishment of United States bases in the British West Indies. He exercised his right to make an objection to his detention before the local advisory committee. This Committee has now reported that the grounds on which the detention Order was made support the Order, and the Governor does not, therefore, propose to release Mr. Domingo.
