§ Sir W. Robson-Brownasked the Secretory of State for the Home Department whether, having regard to the unsatisfactory housing conditions to which West Indian immigrants are being subjected, both with regard to overcrowding and rent exploitation, he will now restrict the intake of immigrants to those with a labour permit proving that they have a guarantee of employment and also reasonable housing accommodation; and whether he will apply such restrictions until he has had an opportunity of a full investigation into the whole problem, in the interests of intending immigrants.
§ Mr. R. A. ButlerThese matters are all being considered, but I am not at present in a position to make a statement.
