asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement on the Government's policy on the admission to the United Kingdom of those dependants, over the age of 21 years, of United Kingdom passport holders.

Sympathetic consideration is given to the admission of children over the age of 21 who are unmarried and have remained dependent upon United Kingdom passport holders covered by the special voucher scheme. The possession of an entry clearance issued prior to arrival in the United Kingdom remains obligatory.
