§ Mr. WinnickTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on the release of further documents relating to the wartime Nazi occupation of the Channel Islands; and what inspection of these documents has been undertaken by representatives of the German authorities.
§ Mr. HanleyThe majority of MOD documents relating to the wartime Nazi occupation of the Channel Islands are already in the public domain. The German authorities are examining all MOD documents relating to this matter.
