§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the Government's policy on what is to happen to the Ugandan Asian resettlement camps as and when they become vacant; and whether he will set up a committee to investigate the best way in which these can be used to aid in the rehousing of the aged, sick and poor of this country.

§ Mr. ChannonWhen the Service camps at present being used as resettlement centres for the Ugandan Asian refugees become vacant the Government intend either that their previous Service use should be resumed or that their disposal under the redundant lands and accommodation procedures should continue. I do not propose to set up a committee of the kind the hon. Member has suggested since I do not think that this type of accommodation is suitable for the purposes he has in mind.
