§ 44. Mr. A. Lewisasked the Prime Minister whether he will make a statement on his discussions with the representative of the Government of South Africa during the Commonwealth Prime Ministers' Conference on the question of the expulsion of Miss Hannah Stanton from South Africa.
§ Mr. R. A. Butler1: I have been asked to reply.
As my hon. Friend the Minister of State for Commonwealth Relations informed the House on 2nd May, my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister has discussed with the Minister of External Affairs of the Union of South Africa the declared intention of his Government to deport Miss Stanton. During these discussions he made as clear as he could the strong feelings which are held in this country on this subject. I cannot add to this.
