BRITISH NATIONALITY (FALKLAND ISLANDS) AMENDMENT BILL

I have seen the Home Secretary's minute of 17 November

about the Bill introduced by Baroness Vickers to give

British citizenship to everyone who has a connection

with the Falkland Islands.

Enclosures-flag(s)..

I endorse his analysis in all respects and support the

line he proposes. There may be considerable difficulties

with some of the other dependencies, but in the

parliamentary circumstances there is no other way forward.

I am copying this to the Home Secretary and to the

recipients of his minute.
