HL Deb 24 November 1977 vol 387 cc1080-2WA
Baroness ELLES

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many holders of United Kingdom and Colonies passports over the age of 18 are now resident in each of the eight other Member States of the European Community.

Lord GORONWY-ROBERTS

This information is not readily available to Her Majesty's Government since citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies resident in other EEC countries are not asked to register at British Embassies. We are, however, trying to obtain estimated figures and I shall write to the noble Baroness as soon as possible.

House adjourned at ten minutes before six o'clock.
