§ Mr. Wilkinsonasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is his estimate of the numbers of non-patrial United Kingdom and Colonies passport holders living overseas ; and if he will publish a numerical breakdown by country or residence.
§ Mr. BlakerI would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to his Question of 19th November—[Vol. 864, c.335–6]—in which it was explained why the information on the number of non-patrial United Kingdom and Colonies passport holders living overseas, as well as patrials, was insufficient for a worthwhile estimate to be made.
