Proceeding contribution from John Greenway (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 March 2006. It occurred during Urgent question on Immigration (Work Permits).
Immigration (Work Permits)
As the Home Secretary knows, the Council of Europe Migration Committee, on which I am happy to serve, is looking at these issues in considerable detail. I warmly welcome what he has said—these are some of the most challenging issues for the Government, and it represents a great step forward that we have all-party consensus on these proposals. I particularly agree with the comments of the hon. Member for Crewe and Nantwich (Mrs. Dunwoody). Sadly, there is a great deal of evidence of abuse of migrant workers, not only irregular migrants but those who are here legally. Will the Home Secretary give the House an assurance that, across Government, those abuses will not be tolerated, and that these people will be given the welcome that they deserve?
