§ Mr. MaddenTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will list the names of carriers who have been fined under the Immigration (Carriers Liability)148W Act 1987 in connection with charter or scheduled flights to Gatwick from the Caribbean since 1 January 1993 to date; if he will detail the total fine in each case; what information officials received from any carrier or others about passengers from Jamaica arriving at Gatwick on 21 December 1993; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Charles WardleIt is not the practice to disclose information about individual carriers. Payments of £2,000 each were demanded in three such cases between 1 January 1993 and 7 January 1994. One of the passengers had travelled from Jamaica but none was a Jamaican citizen. The immigration service received information, including a passenger list, from United Kingdom Leisure about its flight on 21 December.
