HC Deb 27 April 1990 vol 171 c373W
Mr. Meacher

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will estimate the number of persons who were previously resident in Britain who are now resident in each country abroad, above a level of 500 British expatriates in each country; and if he will estimate in each case how many are of pensionable age and how many of working age, respectively.

Mr. Maude

We have no means of estimating the number of British residents living in each country abroad who were previously resident in Britain, nor can we estimate their ages.
