HL Deb 13 December 1978 vol 397 c707WA
Lord AVEBURY

asked Her Majesty's Government:

On what dates the applications were made in respect of quota vouchers issued to United Kingdom passport holders resident in India in November 1978, and how this compares with the delay for vouchers issued in November 1977.

Lord GORONWY-ROBERTS

Applicants in India who received their quota vouchers in November 1977 had waited approximately three and a half years for them. Those now receiving their quota vouchers have waited approximately four years.
