Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill

I take that point, which is germane to what I just said about the link between commencement orders and other matters. However, I shall not go down that road. I think most fair-minded people would accept that the position is not as clear-cut as ““successful appeal equals bad initial decision””—[Interruption.] That is the import of what the hon. Gentleman was suggesting. He should calm down. Limited empirical evidence from the National Audit Office and material that we discussed in Committee suggest that up to 50 per cent. of problems—happily only 50 per cent.—were caused by inaccurate or incomplete documentation at the start of the process, or by the absence of some element at the start of the decision making. We need to explore those issues, and I shall be more than happy to do so in a moment. However, the crude notion that appeal success equals bad initial decision is simply not sustainable.
