HC Deb 18 March 1964 vol 691 c195W
Mr. N. Pannell

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department which of the six men convicted at the Old Bailey of being in possession of dangerous drugs on 9th March, 1964, comprising three Jamaicans, a Nigerian, a native of Hong Kong and an alien, were recommended for deportation; how many recommendations he has confirmed; and, in regard to the Commonwealth citizens involved, how many were exempt from deportation through having been resident in the United Kingdom for five years or more.

Mr. Brooke

None was recommended for deportation. Three would have been exempt under Section 7(2) of the Commonwealth Immigrants Act, 1962; they had been in this country for nine, ten and fourteen years, respectively.
