HC Deb 11 April 1963 vol 675 c194W
36. Mrs. White

asked the Secretary of State for the Horne Department how many immigrants, from the Commonwealth and from other countries, who indicated their intention of studying in this country, full-time and part-time, respectively, have been refused permission to come here during the past 12 months.

Mr. Brooke

There is no record of any Commonwealth citizen whose intention in coming to this country was full-time study having been refused admission under the Commonwealth Immigrants Act, but six who indicated an intention to study part-time were refused admission in the period 1st July, 1962, to 28th February, 1963. As regards aliens, figures for the last twelve months are not readily available; but in the seventeen months ending 28th February last, 84 aliens whose stated reason for coming here was study but whose arrangements for that purpose were considered to be unsatisfactory, were refused leave to land under the Aliens Order. Aliens are not admitted for part-time study.
