HC Deb 25 March 1971 vol 814 cc199-200W
77. Mr. Mudd

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department under what circumstances was Mr. André Holland, a member of the Rhodesian Parliament detained in, and later deported from, Jersey; whether Mr. Holland attempted to disguise his identity or gain admission to the United Kingdom improperly; what is Her Majesty's Gov- ernment's practice concerning the entry to the United Kingdom of Rhodesian citizens; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Maudling

The circumstances in which Mr. Holland was refused entry to Jersey are a matter for the authorities in the Island.

The admission of Rhodesian citizens to the United Kingdom is subject to special restrictions imposed, in accordance with paragraph 5 of the United Nations Security Council Resolution No. 253 of 29th May, 1968, by the Southern Rhodesia (United Nations Sanctions) (No. 2) Order, 1968.
