§ 63. Mr. Chapmanasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why he has still not made a decision about issue of a visitor's visa to Mrs. Helen Bobak, Reference No. B108927, despite the fact that the application was made on 30th January; whether he is aware that this matter is urgent since Mrs. Bobak's passport is valid for only six months from April; why the application 46W has again been referred back to Warsaw; and whether he will now see that a decision is reached immediately.
§ Major Lloyd-GeorgeDr. Bobak was advised in reply to his letter of 30th January that his mother should apply to the British Embassy in Warsaw for a visa for the purpose of her proposed visit to him. Her application appeared to be for permanent settlement, not for a visit, and the Visa Issuing Officer at Warsaw referred it to London on 12th June for further instructions. I should need more information before I could agree to Mrs. Bobak coming to settle here but I have authorised a visa for a visit.
