§ Mr. Jannerasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will institute a search of military records to establish how many British prisoners of war were interrogated by German Army group E, of which Kurt Waldeheim was in charge of interrogation, other than those whose names have been supplied to him by the hon. and learned Member for Leicester, West, and to discover their subsequent fate; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. EggarThe search of Ministry of Defence records already instituted in response to an earlier request from the606W hon. and learned Member is still in progress. To establish how many British prisoners of war were interrogated by German Army group E would require a search of the records of every British prisoner-of-war who went through German hands. With the resources available to the Ministry of Defence that is not practicable.
