§ Mr. Stokesasked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster whether the decision to move 250,000 Germans from Arnsberg to Minden, in order to make room for the families of Belgian soldiers, had his approval; and why it is considered necessary for the families to move in from Belgium.
§ Mr. J. HyndThis scheme is necessary to provide accommodation for the Belgian contingent serving with our Forces of Occupation and for their families who are being given the same facilities to enter Germany as the families of our own Serving men. The number of Germans to be moved from the Arnsberg468W District to alternative accommodation in the Minden District is not 250,000 but 22,500.
