HC Deb 03 December 1979 vol 975 cc9-10W
Mr. Marlow

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when the commitment to 10,000 refugees from Vietnam will have been fulfilled; and what will be the rights of settlement of relatives of the 10,000 refugees who will not have arrived with the 10,000 refugees.

Mr. Raison

It is not yet possible to say when the commitment will have been fulfilled. As far as possible, the selection of refugees keeps family groups together. No decision has yet been made on the position about claimed relationships after the quota has been fulfilled.
