HC Deb 03 December 1968 vol 774 c450W
Mr. Grant

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the number of coloured immigrants resident in the London Borough of Harrow; how this compares, as a percentage of the total population of the borough, with the national average; and what estimate he has made of the future increase in this figure.

Mr. Snow

The sample census of 1966 gave an estimate that there were at that time in the borough about 4,400 residents who had been born in the New Commonwealth. This represented just over 2 per cent. of the enumerated population of the borough in 1966. It is not possible to forecast changes in this figure. The corresponding figure for Great Britain was just over 1.6 per cent.
