HC Deb 04 December 1958 vol 596 c1351
28. Captain Pilkington

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what new arrangements have been made to provide his Department with information about the number of Commonwealth immigrants who come to this country each year.

Mr. R. A. Butler

This matter is still under examination.

Captain Pilkington

Does my right hon. Friend agree that it would be the height of folly to allow to be created in this country a problem which has been found insoluble in some other countries?

Mr. Butler

That is a general observation with which I would generally concur. As to its particular application, I should want more notice of the question.
