Business question from Pete Wishart (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 July 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
May we have a debate on how current immigration policy impacts on widows and widowers? My constituent Nidhi Singh recently had to return to India from Perth with her two small children following the tragic and untimely death of her husband, just a few months short of securing permanent right to remain in the UK. Surely the right hon. and learned Lady finds that discriminatory and unfair. The Obama Administration recently issued an order to stop all deportation action against widows. When may we expect something similar here in the UK?
