HC Deb 28 February 1973 vol 851 c353W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is his estimate, derived from information received by officials of his Department, of the value of assets of those Ugandan Asians at present in the United Kingdom who placed funds in British banks and numbered accounts in Swiss banks prior to their entry into this country.

Lord Balniel

It is not practicable to give such an estimate. My Department is recording details of assets left in Uganda by United Kingdom citizens, without inquiring whether they had or have assets elsewhere.
