HC Deb 10 July 1967 vol 750 c29W
95. Mr. Tilney

asked the Secretary of State for Commonwealth Affairs what administrative arrangements he is making with the Minister of Social Security to look after on humanitarian grounds the hundreds of students from the Eastern Region of Nigeria who are now denied all funds from their home country.

Mr. George Thomas

Very few cases of hardship involving students from the Eastern Region of Nigeria have so far been brought to my attention. I shall of course be consulting my colleagues if this problem assumes serious proportions.
