§ 4. Mr. Shepherdasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will state the nationalities of persons charged with crimes of violence in the United Kingdom in the year 1961.
§ Mr. Fletcher-CookeMy right hon. Friend regrets that this information is not available.
§ Mr. ShepherdCan my hon. and learned Friend say whether we shall be able to discover from the figures of deportations the nationalities of those deported for crimes of violence?
§ Mr. Fletcher-CookeThe statistics will give, in the round, only the countries to which the deportees go, and they are not necessarily nationals of those countries. But the details provide a pretty good idea of the countries of origin, and I have no doubt that various conclusions can be drawn from them.
