HC Deb 16 July 1946 vol 425 cc184-5W
94. Mr. Astor

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is satisfied that, as a result of sending anti-Nazi German prisoners of war to Camp 2218 their desire to propagate anti-Nazi views is in no way deterred and that their confinement in this camp in no way prejudices the views they have been allowed to form in this country concerning the workings of democracy by the British.

Mr. Lawson

As my hon. Friend informed the hon. Member in reply to a Question on 2nd July, Camp 2218 was for a time used as a transit camp for anti-Nazis, but its use for that purpose has ceased. I have no reason to suppose that the political outlook of men passing through this camp was adversely affected in any way.
