Immigrants (Hansard, 30 January 1976)

§ Miss Richardson
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if, in view of the statement of the Minister of State on 19th December 1975, Official Report, Vol. 902, No. 23, that he wishes to encourage minority groups to set up organisations to help their own people in disputes with the Home Office, he would be prepared to consider using the powers under Section 23 of the Immigration Act 1971 to give grants to such organisations.

§ Mr. Alexander W. Lyon
We have no such plans.

§ Mr. Hicks
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will state for each year since 1968 the number of immigrants into the United Kingdom 396W from "old" Commonwealth countries, and the rest of the world other than New Commonwealth countries; and if he will state for the corresponding years the total number of people leaving the United Kingdom.
