The Government has not yet taken decisions on the Jewish Agency’s requests for immigration of refugees, the whole question being still under consideration, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency was informed today. (It had been reported from Tel Aviv last week that Dr. Bernard Joseph, legal adviser of the Jewish Agency, had announced at a meeting of the Jewish National Council that the British Government had rejected all but one of the Agency’s requests on immigration of refugees — the exception being a request for admission of 5,000 children from Germany, which was said to be still under consideration.)
