FIGURES IN BRITAIN Rec. 9.30 a.m. LONDON, July 23. The total number of persons detained under regulation 188 at one time or another is 1817, of whom 1335 were detained in May, June and July, 1940, stated the Minister of Home Security, Mr. Herbert Morrison, replying in the House of Commons debate on the regulations. The total released was 1288. There are now 529 detained, of whom 322 are of hostile origin or association, and 141 were picked up under the regulation, such as some members of the British Union. "There have been 7849 enemy aliens interned, including those interned in Canada and Australia," said Mr. Morrison. Of the aliens of enemy nationality who have come to Britain since 1933, a large proportion are refugees from the Nazis, and many of these have been released, in accordance with the policy set out in the White Paper of October, 1940.
