US Prison Ships
- Question
- My Lords, can the Minister remind the House what the Geneva conventions say about holding POWs afloat as opposed to transporting them by ship?
- Answer
-
My Lords, I am afraid that I cannot tell the noble Earl what they say, but of course I will look up the information and write to him. However, I suspect that he probably knows the answer to the question that he has raised.
