Following allegations in Federal parliament, Justice (Sir) George Rich, as royal commissioner, inquired into conditions at Liverpool and reported inter alia that 'the impropriety and inexpediency' of appointing an officer of German parentage was 'so apparent as to call for no comment'.

Although remaining on the officers' list until 1919, he felt he had suffered 'political assassination', especially as a brother was interned in Germany as an alien.From ADB entry
