§ Mr. T. Reidasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will keep records of the countries of origin of British subjects who immigrate to Britain to settle permanently here.
§ Sir D. Maxwell FyfeI have no power to obtain from British subjects arriving in this country the information which would be required for this purpose. I am consulting my right hon. Friends the President of the Board of Trade and the Minister of Transport to ascertain whether the statistics of passenger traffic which they maintain could be supplemented, and will write to the hon. Member in due course.
