HC Deb 09 March 1972 vol 832 cc396-7W
Mr. Leslie Huckfield

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how many British citizens have been detained in, or expelled from Singapore because of the length of their hair.

Mr. Kershaw

As far as I am aware no United Kingdom nationals have been detained in or expelled from Singapore because of the length of their hair. I understand however that some intending visitors with long hair have been invited to have their hair cut or be denied entry to Singapore.
