HC Deb 04 April 1960 vol 621 c14W
91. Mr. A. Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs why he will not request the United States Government to dispatch to this country microfilm copies of all captured biographical records of the Nazi period, at present held by them both in Washington and the Berlin Document Centre.

Mr. R. Allan

Where microfilm copies of captured documents have been made, they are kept in the National Archives in Washington and they are available to anyone who can give a good reason for wishing to see them.

Since the national archives are prepared to furnish copies of these microfilmed documents on request, there would be no advantage in doing as the hon. Member suggests.
