HC Deb 14 July 1960 vol 626 c138W
Mr. Stonehouse

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies for what reasons Miss Jean Irvine, a qualified teacher from New Zealand, was refused an entry permit to Fiji, in view of her desire to teach in the territory and the shortage of secondary school teachers in Fiji.

Mr. Iain Macleod

This is a matter within the discretion of the local authorities and it is not the practice to disclose reasons in such a case.
