It was the practice to limit these people’s activities in Britain.

Earl Winterton asked: “Won’t the Russians recommended for deportation be deported when the Anglo-Russian agreement operates?” Mr. Clynes replied: “Jinny of these cases will be considered.” Mr. Clynes said that there was no reason for investigating Communist activities throughout the Empire, as the Communist Party’s aims and activities were clearly stated in itsjjublications.
