HC Deb 24 October 1988 vol 139 c14W
Mr. Goodlad

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many Indo-Chinese refugees from Hong Kong he now expects to be admitted to the United Kingdom in the next year; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Renton

We will be admitting the remainder of 468 relatives of refugees already here whose acceptance was announced by my right hon. Friend on 8 May 1987 at column547. We are considering proposals that have been made, in the light of developments in Hong Kong, for the United Kingdom to admit more.
