HC Deb 14 May 1906 vol 157 c181
MR. CLAUDE HAY

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether an alien immigrant who, so far as the immigration authorities can ascertain, is a pauper, a diseased person, an idiot, or a criminal, is to be admitted to this country if he or she claims that exclusion from this country would subject the applicant to hardship, and that the applicant alleges that he or she comes from a disturbed country or a disturbed district of a foreign country.

MR. GLADSTONE

I can add nothing to the Answer I gave to the almost identical Question put by the hon. Member on March 15th last.†
