TRANSCRIPT J: SELECT COMMITTEE RE HONG KONG
-21-
24 MAY 1989
MR. MORRIS:
Can I attempt to answer that, Chairman?
Perhaps the most useful way is to say that our
understanding of the size of the proportion of the
population that is of Chinese ancestry is that at the
moment it is estimated to be at the level of about 110,000
in the United Kingdom, which is about 4.5 percent of the
total ethnic minority population.
MR. TIM ROVLANDS:
Are a large proportion of that 110,000 Hong Kongers
by origin?
MR. MORRIS:
I do not know.
I would imagine that the largest
proportion comes from Hong Kong, but I could not say...
MR. TIM ROVLANDS:
•
What is your attitude. I have not got £150,000 if I
an in Hong Kong, but I have got mum and dad brother or
sister here. How would you handle those sort of
applications?
