Oral answer to question provided on Monday, 26 March 2007 in the House of Lords, by Baroness Scotland of Asthal (Labour).
Immigration: Domestic Workers
- Answer
-
My Lords, I agree with my noble friend. The House knows that this country has a proud record; when we sign, we do so very seriously, with the view, the hope and the expectation that ratification can follow thereafter.
- Question
- My Lords, does my noble friend agree that, welcome as the Prime Minister’s decision to sign the convention on trafficking is, it will be a great step forward if the Government now proceed to ratification so that that can be taken into account in making it binding on the member countries of the Council of Europe?
