To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will take steps to prevent the entry to the United Kingdom of activitists from(a) Operation Rescue and (b) Rescue America.

Mr. Charles Wardle

Citizens of the United States of America are subject to immigration control and must qualify to enter under the terms of the immigration rules. My right hon. and learned Friend may direct exclusion if a person's presence would not be conducive to the public good. Consideration will be given to any evidence which would justify exclusion on this ground.
