Proceeding contribution from Lord Hylton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill 2005-06.
Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill
The amendment gives me the opportunity to ask a question, although in doing so I shall probably display my profound ignorance. Is it the Government’s intention to have two tiers of scrutiny for each person coming from a country for which visas are required? Let us assume that the person gets a visa in whatever country it is and then arrives at a port here. Is it totally exceptional for that person to be refused entry, having already obtained a visa? If the person can still be refused entry, that seems to devalue the whole principle of the visa system.
