Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Marlesford (Conservative). It was answered on Thursday, 9 October 2008.


Iraq: Refugees

Question
My Lords, does the Minister recognise that the case raised by my noble friend suggests that the wrong judgment was made? If officials cannot make the right judgment—and they cannot always do so—will he at least ensure that where there is a case which is clearly very sensitive they refer it to Ministers for decision rather than taking a decision themselves?
Answer

My Lords, we will certainly look into that. I believe that that will be the correct process in a case. If it is not, I will write to the noble Lord.
