HC Deb 24 October 1945 vol 414 cc2152-3W
Captain F. Noel-Baker

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs on what grounds Mr. Zerbini, a Greek resident of Egypt, is still detained in forced residence in Eritrea.

Mr. Bevin

The British security authorities in the Middle East have already informed the Egyptian Government that they have no objection to Zerbinis' return to Egypt and that they will afford him any necessary facilities for his journey. As soon as the Egyptian Government grant a visa M. Zerbinis will be able to return to Egypt.
