HC Deb 19 November 1964 vol 702 c79W
34. Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, so long as sufficient housing is not available in the areas concerned, he will instruct immigration officers to make greater use of their existing power to admit immigrants subject to conditions governing the length of stay or employment or occupation in this country.

Sir F. Soskice

This is one of the aspects of immigration control which I am reviewing, but the classes of immigrants who could be so restricted under existing law are limited.

Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will give Government assistance to the Birmingham University study, in the Sparkbrook area of Birmingham, of the social effects of immigration.

Sir F. Soskice

I understand that this study is receiving support from funds provided by the Nuffield Foundation through the Institute of Race Relations, and I know of no request for Government assistance.
