HC Deb 06 July 1987 vol 119 c49W
Mr. Fatchett

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will waive the naturalisation fee for those Polish war veterans who wish to become British citizens; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Renton

No: it is reasonable to expect those who wish to become British citizens to pay for the cost of dealing with their applications, and concessions to one group would only increase the costs to others.
