51. Mr. KENNEDY JONESasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the issue of the draft Order in Council regulating the admission of aliens to the United Kingdom, he will state whether these Regulations will, with suitable local modifications, be applied to all parts of the British Empire other than the self-govern- 1410 ing Dominions; and, if not, what different principles for achieving the same end will be sanctioned by the Colonial Office?
§ Lieut.-Colonel AMERYI am not yet in a position to say what precise measures it may be desirable or practicable to take in the various Colonies and Protectorates in border to provide effectively for the regulation of the admission of aliens, or to what extent those measures will be based on the Regulations proposed for the United Kingdom. My hon. Friend will realise that the question will require very careful consideration in order to secure the end in view in the manner best suited to local conditions in each case.
