§ 87. Commander Maitlandasked the Secretary of State for War whether all detention reports for German prisoners have now been received from the U.S.A.: and when he proposes to inform all German prisoners in this country, who are still uncertain whether or not they will be detained, of his decision in this matter.
§ Mr. BellengerLists of suspected war criminals are received from individual countries through the United Nations War Crimes Commission, who notify the country concerned when a wanted man has been identified. The decision to bring a suspect to trial or to drop the case then rests not with His Majesty's Government,146W but with the country which registered him. I am informed that the lists are not yet complete.
