asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department the number of proceedings, convictions, and charges proved for drunkenness for the Metropolitan Police district and for the county of London and for the City of London, respectively, during the calendar year 1949, and the comparable figures for 1948.

Mr. Ede

The following table gives the available information:

property from the control of the Custodian of Enemy Property and from the Charge imposed by the Treaty of Peace (Hungary) Order, 1948, under certain conditions, in a limited number of classes of cases of which the most numerous are: (a) British born women who acquired Hungarian nationality by marriage, provided they are resident in British territory; (b) individuals who were deprived of liberty pursuant to Hungarian legislation discriminating against them on racial or religious grounds and who did not enjoy full civil rights. In these cases property is not released unless the applicant has set up permanent residence outside enemy territory.
