Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Viscount Bledisloe (Crossbench). It was answered on Tuesday, 16 May 2006.
Terrorism: Extradition
- Question
- My Lords, will the noble Baroness enlighten the House as to the difference between deportation by the Government from this country and extradition from this country at the suit of another country? There seems to be some confusion.
- Answer
-
My Lords, I do not think that there is any confusion. We have arrangements under the new Extradition Act, which clearly sets out the basis on which we will respond to requests made by a convention country or requesting state. There are clear rules, under our immigration and asylum legislation, dealing with deportation from this country.
