§ Mr. Sillarsasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is his estimate of the number of Scottish-born persons resident in England.
§ Mr. Alec JonesI have been asked to reply.
No information is available about the number of Scottish-born persons usually resident in England. At the 1971 Census of Population there were 755,790 persons enumerated in England who had been born in Scotland. This figure includes persons visiting England who were usually resident elsewhere and who were born in Scotland.
