Proceeding contribution from Neil Gerrard (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 November 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Immigration Control.


Immigration Control

I absolutely agree and if I had received such a response I would have reacted in exactly the same way as my hon. Friend. The section of the report that discusses the role of MPs rightly says that we should not have been drawn into the process as we have. We are now seen as a conduit for immigration and asylum applications and decisions, and I am sure that other hon. Members are finding their immigration and asylum caseload overwhelming.
