§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware that of the distributions notified to the Uganda Resettlement Board by the beginning of December of 252W Uganda Asians going direct from airports and those who have left resettlement centres, 914 were going to Barnet, 1,762 to Brent, 832 to Ealing, 918 to Harrow and 630 to Newham; what were the figures for Southall, Haringey and Leicester; and what are the latest figures.
§ Mr. LaneReliable figures of the number of Asians expelled from Uganda who are now living in the areas referred to are not available. Statistics based on the addresses to which they originally went would not reflect the present position. Figures related to early December and comparable with those given by the hon. Member are 276 for Haringey and 1,861 for Leicester. Figures for Southall are not kept separately.
§ Mr. Cyril Smithasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will consider allowing the husbands and children of Ugandan Asians wives with British passports who are already living in the United Kingdom to enter or stay in the United Kingdom.
§ Mr. LaneI would refer the hon. Member to the answer given yesterday to a Question by the right hon. Member for Middlesbrough, East (Mr. Bottomley).—[Vol. 849, c. 630.]
