sir.
I am directed by Mr.Secretary Ramsay MacDonald
to transmit herewith a copy of correspondence with
His Majesty's Minister at Tehran and with the Home Office concerning two British subjects of Persian origin, Mohammed Hassan Nemazi and his son, Ahmed
Nemazi, and to state that on consideration of the
circumstances there explained, he proposes to instruct
His Majesty's Chargé d'Affaires at Tehran by telegraph
to authorise the issue of emergency certificates to
the above named persons for the single journey to
Hong Kong only.
2.
I am to request, in view of the opinion held
of the Namazis by His Majesty's Minister at Tehran and
by the Home Office, that on their arrival in Hong Kong, the whole question whether they should receive travelling
facilities may receive further consideration.
3.
I am to invite Mr.Secretary Thomas' attention
to paragraph 4 of the enclosure in Sir P.Loraine's despatch No.115 of February 26th, containing Nenazi's statement that he was appointed a Justice of the Peace for Hong Kong in 1921. The holding of an office of this nature by a man of Namazi's character is an embarrassment
to
The Under-Secretary of State,
Colonial Office.
