§ Sir G. Foxasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many of the 1,618 Jews admitted to this country during the past few months under the November, 1945, scheme and the Central Office of Refugees scheme, are admitted for permanent settlement; and how many more entrants under these schemes are envisaged.
§ Mr. EdeThe hon. and gallant baronet is mistaken in thinking that dither of these schemes applies only to Jews. All foreigners who qualify under either scheme are admitted on a temporary basis. I have no reliable means of estimating how many more foreigners will qualify for admission under the present categories.
