DRAFT WRITTEN PARLIAMENTARY QUESTION

QUESTION;

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment, whether a decision has yet been made on a special annual quota for 1991 of work permits for workers from the Dependent Territories whose level of skill is below that required by the general Work Permit Scheme.

Draft Reply:

It has been decided that there should be a quota for 1991 of 50 for use by Dependent Territories other than Hong Kong.

The

arrangements to grant British Citizenship to 50,000 families from Hong Kong remove the justification for a special allocation of work permits under the quota for that Territory.
