HC Deb 30 July 1949 vol 467 cc202-3W
Mr. Paget

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs why Mr. and Mrs. Harry Ronald Gilby, 57, Cedar Road, Northampton, who applied by letter and sent passports for a permit to travel in Germany on 27th June, who sent a further letter, forms and fee of 10s. on 30th June, and who came to London to pay a personal visit on 4th July, have not received their permit.

Mr. Mayhew

I much regret that owing to the very heavy pressure in the Military Permit Office these passports were mislaid before the recent reorganisation took effect. They have now been despatched by post endorsed with the entry permits.
