§ Mr. Ammonasked the Home Secretary what was the last occasion on which a letter mail was received from the Channel Islands; and whether he has any information as to the conditions, obtaining on the islands?
§ Mr. H. MorrisonI am informed by the Foreign Relations Department of the Red Cross that replies to postal messages continue to reach this country from the Channel Islands at frequent intervals; and that messages originating in the Channel Islands have been received during the past two months, the last occasion being 6th October, 1941. It is hoped that friends and relatives will continue to receive additional information concerning our fellow-countrymen in the islands in this way. These messages are, of course, private, but so far as they have come to my notice they are reassuring.
