§ 19. Sir D. Rentonasked the Secreary of State for the Home Department how many people from Kenya of Indian or Pakistani origin have ben given leave to land and to settle in the United Kingdom so far this year, and what further numbers of them are likely to apply for admission during the next year or two; whether he will make a statement on the nature and size of the problem; and what steps will be taken by Her Majesty's Government to deal with it.
§ Mr. Roy JenkinsIf the right hon. and learned Gentleman is referring to citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies resident in Kenya and holding passports issued by the Government of the United Kingdom, they do not require leave to settle here. Statistics are not available in the precise form indicated by the Question, but I have no doubt that there has recently been an appreciable increase in the inflow. I shall continue to watch the position carefully.
