Mr. Hastings
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what steps are taken to control visits to the United Kingdom, without passports, of foreign diplomats accredited abroad; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Lane
Foreign diplomats accredited to some other country are subject to immigration control, and in accordance with the immigration rules—rule 3 of H.C. 81—must, on arrival in the United Kingdom, produce on request by the immigration officer a passport or other document establishing identity and nationality. If my hon. Friend has any particular case in mind I shall be very ready to look into it.
