§ 68. Mr. Brooman-Whiteasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in view of the undertaking by Her Majesty's Government to accept a proportion of the refugees from Hungary, he will make a further statement on the number who have to date escaped to the West and on the response from persons and institutions offering aid in resettlement for those coming to this country; and whether he will consider increasing the number of refugees which Britain will receive.
§ Mr. Dodds-ParkerI understand that at least 35,000 Hungarian refugees have now reached Austria. As regards the other parts of the Question, I would refer the hon. Member to the replies given to the hon. Member for Londonderry (Mr. Chichester-Clark) on 15th November, and to the right hon. Member for Blyth (Mr. Robens) and the hon. Member for West Ham, North (Mr. Lewis) on 19th November.
