HC Deb 10 December 1968 vol 775 c119W
Mr. Hannan

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he has received the 1966 census of population; and if he will now make an estimate of inter-regional migration.

Mr. Ennals

Of the 13 census reports dealing with inter-regional migration, 9 have already been published. The volume for the South Eastern Region and the summary volume for England and Wales will appear shortly; and the volumes for Scotland and for England and Wales dealing with the migration of households will appear later. Current estimates of net annual migration inter-regionally are made by the Registrars General for England and Wales and for Scotland, the most recent figures being for the year 1966–67.
