HC Deb 14 December 1964 vol 704 c1W
8. Mr. John Harvey

asked the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs what precautions exist or will be introduced to guard against the abduction of persons from the United Kingdom through channels of communication that are diplomatically privileged.

Mr. George Thomson

There are no diplomatically privileged channels of communication for the abduction of persons from the United Kingdom. If there were serious reason to believe that abduction was taking place from this country in breach of national or international law, the necessary action would be taken to stop it.
