asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether the central Race Relations Board and the local conciliation committees set up under the Race Relations Act will be able to receive complaints of racial discrimination from voluntary liaison committees.

Yes, Sir, provided that the complaints are made with the written authority of those against whom the discrimination is alleged to have been practised.

May I thank my right hon. and learned Friend for that reply which clarifies a point in the White Paper which was issued recently?
