§ Mr. A. Walkdenasked the Under-Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs whether the Government of Eire have given a firm assurance that in the event of any war criminals whom the Allies desire to bring to judgment landing in Eire they will promptly hand them over to the British Government.
§ Mr. Emrys-EvansI understand that in reply to a Question addressed to him on this subject in the Dail on 3rd October, Mr. de Valera has said that he hopes to make a statement on the subject in a week or two. Perhaps the hon. Member would put down his Question again, when I hope to be able to give him a fuller reply. In the meantime, I can assure him that we have left the Eire Government in no doubt as to our attitude on this matter.
