HC Deb 27 January 1955 vol 536 cc46-7W
73. Mr. Driberg

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will delay action to deport an American citizen, of whose name he has been in formed, since she is a person of good character, employed in a responsible position by the London County Council, and since she is, in any case, likely to become a British subject by marriage within the course of a few weeks.

Major Lloyd-George

I decided that it would not be in the public interest to grant an extension of stay to this woman, and as she did not leave the country after her permitted stay expired, I made a Deportation Order against her. It was not necessary to enforce the Order as, on being informed that it had been made and would be enforced, she left the country.
