§ Lord AVEBURYasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether they will waive the £11 fee payable for the issue of a Convention Travel Document in respect of any refugee who is not in gainful employment.
§ The MINISTER of STATE, HOME OFFICE (Lord Harris of Greenwich)It is general Government policy to set fees and charges at a level which is designed to recover the costs involved and no more. My right honourable friend has no proposals for waiving the fee for Convention Travel Documents.
