HC Deb 19 May 1992 vol 208 c93W
Mr. Winnick

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what occurred when Mr. Adol T. Owen-Williams junior recently arrived at Gatwick airport; what questions and comments were made to him by immigration officers; and what plans he has to investigate his statement that he was subject to offensive comments by immigration officers.

Mr. Charles Wardle

Mr. Owen-Williams was refused entry because he failed to meet the criteria for admission as a visitor in the published immigration rules. He was asked a number of questions about his background, employment, financial status and future plans. His allegations about his treatment by immigration officers have been investigated and he will receive a full reply. The investigating officer is satisfied that no offensive comments were made to him by immigration officers.
