§ Mr. Ellis Smithasked the Secretary of State for War if officers of the German armed forces travel first- or third-class on British railways; what kind of accommodation, food and clothing are they allowed; what other allowances, in any way, are they allowed; are Nazi officers allowed to mix with other German officers; and are the Nazi officers treated in the same way as ordinary military officers.
§ Mr. A. HendersonOfficers of the German Army travel third-class on British railways. Accommodation and ration scales are similar to those for British troops at home. German officers are messed free of charge by reciprocal arrangement with the German Government. A regulated scale of clothing is issued to the prisoners and they pay for 363W it. They receive pay but no other allowances. The answer to the last two parts of my hon. Friend's Question is Yes, Sir. This is in accordance with the provisions of the Geneva Convention. But close control is exercised over any extreme Nazis.
