HC Deb 25 June 1959 vol 607 cc156-7W
66. Mr. Donnelly

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement about the circumstances in which Mr. V. Bradic, a Yugoslav national, has been refused political asylum in this country.

Mr. R. A. Butler

I explained to the House in debate on 6th March, 1958, the conditions governing the grant of political asylum. In the case of Mr. Bradic, I reached the conclusion that they were not fulfilled. I am now considering some further representations which have since been brought to my notice, and I shall write to the hon. Member as soon as possible.
