Answer

I hope that what I gave was something of an answer, rather than a question. The hon. Gentleman raises an important issue. I will be happy to look into it further with him.

This is an answer to the Oral question asked on Monday, 19 June 2006 by Paul Rowen (Liberal Democrat).

Question
I thank the Minister for that question. I ask him, however, to look at the deportation of husbands of arranged marriages. I know of several examples of women who are being harassed. They have given information to the Department. Even though their husbands’ appeals have failed, the IND has not taken steps to remove them.
