§ Mr. Proctorasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware that many aliens, particularly from Eastern Europe, who came to the United Kingdom during the war years and subsequently, arrived in parties and were not interviewed individually by immigration officers at the port of arrival; and what steps he is taking in the interests of security to review the position.
§ Mr. EdeFor security purposes, arrangements are being made to obtain at a personal interview by immigration officers further information about the aliens who, for the most part, came to this country during and since the war in large groups and were not given a personal examination at the ports of landing. The collection of this information will take some time and each individual concerned: will receive a notice telling him where the interview will take place.
