Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill

No one doubts the Minister’s personal sincerity on the matter. He is a dedicated and hard-working constituency MP dealing with hundreds of thousands of immigration cases, but it is the system that needs changing, not the Minister and not the appeals system. He should defer these measures until he puts in place a package of measures that will deal with the issue of bad decision making, exactly as the Select Committee recommended. All he has to do is defer and get his package in place, and he will find that he does not need to make the changes that he is making today.
