HC Deb 30 October 1945 vol 415 c389W
Mr. Stokes

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is satisfied that the Army Command in Europe are following the policy that displaced Poles shall not be returned to Poland except of their own free will; and whether this policy also applies to displaced persons who came originally from the area east of the Curzon Line.

Mr. Lawson

This policy also applies to displaced Poles who came from the territories west of the 1939 Soviet-Polish frontier but east of the Curzon line, none of whom is returned except at his own expressed wish.
