HC Deb 29 March 1955 vol 539 c23W
Major Beamish

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what further consideration has been given to this country joining the Inter-government Committee for European Migration, in view of the fact that 25 countries now belong to this organisation, including Canada Australia and New Zealand.

Mr. Turton

We have not lost sight of this matter, but I regret that financial considerations still make it impossible for the United Kingdom to join this organisation.
