Proceeding contribution from David Winnick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill.
Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill
Will my right hon. Friend bear in mind the fact that appeals are rarely successful if heard on the basis of papers? The oral appeal allows the sponsor to state the appellant’s case through a representative while the Home Office puts the case of the entry clearance officer. Removing that appeal would undermine people’s ability to visit close relatives. I hope that my right hon. Friend will not do what the Tories did and undermine the appeals system.
