HC Deb 27 November 1987 vol 123 cc366-7W
Mr. Battle

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will reconsider his decision to respond directly to individual constituents regarding immigration cases rather than respond to the constituent's hon. Member.

Mr. Renton

As my right hon. Friend indicated to the House on Second Reading of the Immigration Bill (columns 789–790), we do not consider present arrangements for handling hon. Members' representations in immigration cases to be satisfactory and we shall shortly be putting forward proposals for change.
