HC Deb 24 October 1972 vol 843 c241W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he will give a detailed list of the social welfare departments covering the areas in which there are reception camps for the immigrant Ugandan Asians; in how many of these areas welfare payments are paid; and what, in each instance, were the total welfare payments made in each area in the week preceding the arrival of these Asians and for each week since.

Mr. Dean

No. The utility of this information is insufficient to justify the disproportionate cost of obtaining it.
