§ 29. Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why, in the case which has been referred to him by the hon. Member for West Ham, North, immigration officers thought it necessary to examine separately first and second class passengers; why all passengers cannot be examined at the same time; and whether it is the general practice of immigration officers to examine separately first and second class travellers.
§ Mr. CarlisleIt was more convenient, and quicker for all concerned, to examine the classes separately. But they were examined simultaneously. The answer to the third part of the Question is, "No."
