Proceeding contribution from George Mudie (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 March 2006. It occurred during Urgent question on Immigration (Work Permits).


Immigration (Work Permits)

Speaking as one who represents an inner-city seat in Leeds, may I offer the Home Secretary a warm welcome for his proposals? I also congratulate the Home Office on the extent of the consultation that has taken place on these measures. In the document, it is suggested that applicants will start at the first tier and move through the tiers. Will the Home Secretary tell the House how long it might take someone to go through that process and finish the scheme? What will happen to applications in the meantime?
