It may be useful however to give some typical examples in greater detail as follows. A port security. Questions affecting port security have covered a wide range, e.g. security of docks and ships, conditions affecting British, allied and neutral seamen, the examination of pas- sangers outgoing and incoming including refugees censorship of documents on passengers and ships, maintaining the secrecy of ships destinations and other important information. A number of departments are involved: Admiralty, War Off ice, Ministry of War Transport, port authorities, Ministry of Labor, Home Office immigration and customs offices, censorship, security, service and local police forces. In fac- ing the many problems an attempt is made to reconcile the needs of security with the practical working of the port. WINANT KLP |
