Orders of the Day — Palestine (31 Jul 1946)

Mr Hugh Delargy: I want to make reference to one point which is not usually raised in this House when Palestine is debated, probably because it is a subject that is rather disagreeable—the danger of a fresh outburst of anti-Semitism, not merely in Palestine among the Arabs but here and everywhere. It is a danger which does exist and is particularly acute after the recent explosion in Jerusalem. No good...

Unemployment and Family Allowances (Northern Ireland) Agreement Bill (21 Nov 1946)

Mr Hugh Delargy: To return to the Bill which the hon. Member for Londonderry (Sir R. Ross) appears to have forgotten, I am all in favour of extending the benefits of this Bill to the people in Northern Ireland. I am in favour of extending to the people of Northern Ireland all the benefits to which they are entitled, particularly when they are not likely to receive any benefits from their own domestic...

Oral Answers to Questions — British Army: Personal Cases (11 Feb 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: When my right hon. Friend receives letters from Members about soldiers being unduly detained under close arrest, will he please give instructions to those who answer for him not to give answers which are a source of bewilderment to those who know anything about military law?

Oral Answers to Questions — Fuel Emergency: Greyhound Racing Ban (27 Feb 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: Is my right hon. Friend aware that his decision in this matter has given general satisfaction, and will he take steps to see that the restriction is continued, not only during the winter, but during the summer as well, in view of the fact that most people concerned with greyhound racing are social parasites?

Orders of the Day — Foreign Affairs (27 Feb 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: Yes, I can. One Member of this House was imprisoned in Northern Ireland and kept there for 18 months without knowing why—Mr. Cahir Healy, who represented Fermanagh and Tyrone in this House.

Orders of the Day — Civil Estimates and Estimates for Revenue Departments, Supplementary Estimate, 1946–47: Class X (28 Feb 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: Would it be in Order to ask the Committee to agree to these Estimates formally so that the Adjournment could then be moved, in order to discuss the question of displaced persons in Germany?

Orders of the Day — Civil Estimates and Estimates for Revenue Departments, Supplementary Estimate, 1946–47: Class X (28 Feb 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: The point made by my hon. Friend the Member for Ipswich (Mr. Stokes) was that he objected not so much to the work, as to the fact that displaced persons, under our jurisdiction, should be made to work for the Germans. I object to that as well.

Orders of the Day — Civil Estimates and Estimates for Revenue Departments, Supplementary Estimate, 1946–47: Class X (28 Feb 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: May I bring the Committee back to a consideration of the Amendment which we are supposed to be discussing? In his somewhat lengthy, but interesting and able, speech the hon. Member for Ipswich (Mr. Stokes) made one point perfectly clear. He said he was responsible for this Amendment because he wished to protest against a change in policy. Those were the important words used by him. There was...

Orders of the Day — Civil Estimates and Estimates for Revenue Departments, Supplementary Estimate, 1946–47: Class X (28 Feb 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: With great respect, Mr. Beaumont, we are supporting an Amendment to this Estimate precisely because we are dissatisfied with the manner in which this money is being used in the Control Commission of Germany insofar as that Commission is not doing what it ought to do in one of its important functions. It is well known to everyone that we have assumed for these persons a certain definite, not...

Orders of the Day — Civil Estimates and Estimates for Revenue Departments, Supplementary Estimate, 1946–47: Class X (28 Feb 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: But already the German police are empowered to deal with displaced persons as German civilians when outside displaced persons camps and assembly centres. That is a flagrant violation of all the undertakings we have given. We promised these people that they would come under our jurisdiction; now we are handing them back to the jurisdiction of the people who were their masters when they were...

Oral Answers to Questions — National Finance: Films (Entertainments Duty) (11 Mar 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: Will the Chancellor agree that not only in the interests of the national economy, but also in the interests of the cinema-going public, it is advisable seriously to curtail, the import of American films?

Orders of the Day — Transport Bill: Clause 99. — (Compensation to officers and servants in connection with transfers.) (30 Apr 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: On a point of Order, Mr. Deputy-Speaker. Considering the total collapse of what was until tonight the official Opposition, could not representations be made

Orders of the Day — National Service Bill: Clause 1. — (Liability to be called up for service.) ( 6 May 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: On a point of Order. What has all this to do with the Amendment?

Orders of the Day — National Service Bill: Clause 1. — (Liability to be called up for service.) ( 6 May 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: I think the Committee will not take long to make up their minds what to do with this Amendment, and I do not intend to waste much time on it either. The Committee will certainly reject this Amendment, because every person who is likely to be affected by it, directly or indirectly, does not wish to see it carried. First of all the Government would certainly not, because the Government must...

Orders of the Day — National Service Bill: Clause 1. — (Liability to be called up for service.) ( 6 May 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: It is exceedingly easy to go into the Lobby when we are absolutely certain that there will only be a few people there with us. I say quite frankly that the Ulster Unionists are not serious about this Measure; that it is something which for political reasons and to keep up the pretence of loyalty they feel obliged to do. But if they thought for one moment that their bluff would be called, and...

Orders of the Day — Northern Ireland Bill (13 Jun 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: Since this Debate began—indeed, ever since I first heard there was likely to be an opportunity of debating this matter concerning the Six Counties of Northern Ireland—I have been extremely curious. I have been curious to know what hon. Members opposite would find to say. One or two of the hon. Members who speak in this House on behalf of Ulster Unionism are my personal friends. I know...

Orders of the Day — Northern Ireland Bill (13 Jun 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: I personally do not know why it was posted in Eire, because I did not post it, but I have a suspicion that it was posted in Eire in order to get round the postal political censorship of Northern Ireland.

Orders of the Day — Northern Ireland Bill (13 Jun 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: I am perfectly well aware that the postal service in Northern Ireland is Imperial. But since the matter has been raised—and I do assure you, Mr. Speaker, that I had not intended to raise the matter—I do state categorically that it is a fact that there is a political censorship of mails in Northern Ireland by the Northern Ireland Government; and one of the most respected Members of the...

Orders of the Day — Northern Ireland Bill (13 Jun 1947)

Mr Hugh Delargy: I regret that I have not got those names and addresses at this moment.
