§ 95. Mr. Wilkesasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs the date on which His Majesty's Government made representations to the Greek Government regarding the dissolution of the Greek trade union movement, and the internment of the former resistance leaders, including Generals Bakirdjis and Sarafis, on Greek penal islands; and whether any reply has been received by His Majesty's Government.

§ Mr. BevinSince the Greek Council of State set aside the Greek Trade Union elections His Majesty's Government have been, by invitation of the Greek Government, constantly in touch with them on this subject. More recently His Majesty's Government have more precisely formulated their advice on this point, and this formula is still being considered by the Greek Government. Meanwhile it is incorrect to say that the Greek trade union movement has been dissolved and the question of representations on this point does not, therefore, arise. As regards the internment of former resistance leaders, this is a matter for the Greek Government.
