Proceeding contribution from Lord Avebury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 24 November 2005. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Asylum (Designated States) (No. 2)Order 2005.
Asylum (Designated States) (No. 2)Order 2005
My Lords, no one is asking the Minister to give a decision off the cuff, as it were, but I did ask him whether the Secretary of State would agree to refer the question of partial designation in respect of gays, in particular in the case of Jamaica, to the advisory panel. Clearly, the advisory panel had advised the Secretary of State that men should be singled out in the case of Ghana and Nigeria, but if it has not been asked to advise on gays, perhaps it is time for the Secretary of State to take its advice.
