Proceeding contribution from Peter Bottomley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 2 February 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Population and Immigration.

Population and Immigration

I ask my hon. Friend to reflect, either now or later, on how that net immigration of 21,000 compares with the number of people returning or coming from overseas and registering with GPs. That figure has reached 600,000, but the maximum number for people returning to this country is 69,000. That indicates that immigration is substantially higher than the Government's immigration figures suggest.
