HC Deb 22 June 1982 vol 26 c45W
Mr. Frank R. White

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what are the entry conditions that apply to male fiancés arriving in the United Kingdom from the Indian sub-continent; and if he will consider amending the rules regarding permission for indefinite stay.

Mr. Raison

Provided he meets the requirements of paragraph 52 of the Immigration Rules—HC 394; 1978–80—a fiancé will normally be admitted to the United Kingdom for three months, with a prohibition on his taking employment. We have no plans to amend the rules regarding permission for indefinite stay for men who enter as fiancés.
