HC Deb 09 June 1988 vol 134 c643W
Mr. Janner

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will now consider DNA fingerprinting as conclusive evidence of parentage; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Renton

Due weight is already given to the results of DNA tests submitted by applicants in support of entry clearance applications. The results of the pilot trial to evaluate the role of DNA testing in immigration procedures will be available shortly.
