§ 15. Mr. Channonasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is now prepared to grant similar no-passport day facilities to air travellers as are already enjoyed by sea excursionists to the Continent.
§ Major Lloyd-GeorgeA passport is the usual and appropriate document for the purpose of travel overseas. The recent concession of no passport facilities to certain holiday resorts was a restoration of pre-war facilities granted in respect of day excursions to the Continent by sea and I do not think that this concession ought to be treated as a precedent for the abolition of passports or for its extension to excursions by air which are not so easily controllable.
