HC Deb 16 March 1972 vol 833 c157W
Mr. Wall

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs why Mr. Alistar Mars, a British subject, has been expelled from Malta; and what representations he has made.

Mr. Kershaw

Our High Commission in Valetta learned of the proposed expulsion of Mr. Alistar Mars on 13th March. Mr. Mars is a Canadian citizen but in view of the circumstances the High Commission helped him with his departure arrangements and obtained a short extension of his stay to enable him to complete his arrangements. It is not however for the High Commission to make representations on behalf of a Commonwealth citizen expelled from another Commonwealth country or to seek reasons for the expulsion.
