§ Mr. Deakinsasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what financial incentives are available from public funds to encourage emigration from the United Kingdom; and if he has any information as to incentives offered by overseas Governments to encourage such emigration.
§ Mr. WaddingtonThere are no Government funded schemes to encourage emigration from this country, but financial assistance with the cost of travel is available in certain circumstances for immigrants to this country who wish to return permanently overseas but lack the means to do so. I have no information about incentives which may be offered by overseas Governments to encourage emigration from the United Kingdom.
