Mr. Madden

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he intends to publish the feasibility study on DNA testing; what arrangements he is making to assist those in financial hardship to obtain DNA tests; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Renton

Officials are preparing a report on the pilot trial of the use of DNA profiling in immigration cases. A copy will be placed in the Library as soon as possible. We shall address the related policy issue, including the availability of financial assistance, when the report is available.
