Proceeding contribution from Cheryl Gillan (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 16 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill 2005-06.


Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill

Then I shall choose my words carefully. If there is a wonderful, thriving, vibrant market in international students in Europe, why is the President of the European Union proposing that foreign students completing doctorates in Europe should be offered citizenships in an effort to lure them into that market, and why is the Prime Minister backing that idea as part of his liberal reform agenda? Why did he push it during his presidency, which of course will end in December?
