We have decided that it would be right to admit for settlement an additional number of Vietnamese from Hong Kong. Our aim is to ease
humanitarian a major human problem by reducing the refugee population in the territory and encouraging other countries to make similar generous contributions. We will take a further 1,000 Vietnamese over the next 2 to 3 years. They will be admitted at a rate of about
20 per month until the present commitment to 468 individuals has been fulfilled and thereafter at about 40 per month. The 1,000 will include relatives of Vietnamese already here and others with the potential more quickly to become self-sufficient in the United Kingdom, together with some who have been in the camps for a long time and have not been accepted elsewhere.
