79. Miss Lestor

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what changes in the administration of immigra- tion procedures at ports of entry he proposes to make as a result of the Divisional Courts judgment in the recent case of Habib Khan.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

The judgment does not call for any change in procedure, but I have had copies of it distributed to all immigration officers.

80. Mr. John Hall

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what are the net figures of women and children, respectively, who have entered the United Kingdom since the introduction of the Commonwealth Immigrants Act, 1962; and what estimate has been made of the likely entry in 1967.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

The net balance of immigration of those subject to Part I of the Commonwealth Immigrants Act, 1962, between 1st July, 1962, and 31st December, 1966, was:

women 94,552
children 92,516
It is not possible to estimate how many are likely to be admitted in 1967.
