§ Mr. MaddenTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department (1) what is his estimate of the number, to the latest available date, or Iraqi nationals and other nationals, required to register under the Immigration (Variation of Leave) Order 1991, who, to date, have failed to register; what are the requirements of registration; and if he will make a statement;
(2) how many Iraqi nationals are currently registered with the police; what fee is charged for registration; and how many such registrations since the coming into force of the Immigration (Variation of Leave) Order 1991 have been made.
§ Mr. Peter LloydOn 21 January 1991, a total of 3,484 Iraqi nationals were registered with the police. Information is not yet available centrally showing the number who have registered since coming into force of the Immigration (Variation of Leave) Order 1991 which required all Iraqi nationals with a limited leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom to register with the police. The requirements of registration are to supply within seven days of the requirement being imposed certain details to the police, such as name, date of birth, address, together with a recent photograph and to keep the police informed of changes in circumstances. The fee for registration is currently £36.
