HL Deb 13 December 1990 vol 524 c38WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many Kuwaitis are currently in the United Kingdom and what is their status.

Earl Ferrers

It is estimated from the labour force surveys that about a couple of thousand Kuwaiti nationals, including students, are usually resident in the United Kingdom. Exact information on the number of Kuwaiti nationals who are currently in this country as visitors is not available; but it is understood that about 7,000 Kuwaiti nationals, including those resident here, have registered with the Kuwait Embassy in this country.
