HL Deb 05 May 1982 vol 429 c1254WA
Lord Hylton

asked Her Majesty's Government:

With which Commonwealth Caribbean countries there exist reciprocal arrangements on pensions and other welfare benefits, and whether agreements are being negotiated in any cases where they do not already exist.

Lord Trefgarne

The United Kingdom has a reciprocal agreement on social security with Jamaica, which covers pensions and certain other benefits. We also have an agreement of this sort with the dependency of Bermuda. There are no plans at present to enter into negotiations for an agreement with any other Caribbean country.
