Proceeding contribution from David Heath (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 February 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on UK Borders Bill.


UK Borders Bill

The hon. Gentleman is not going to introduce something advocated by Liberal Democrat and Conservative Members—a single, integrated border force, encompassing police functions as well as the functions discharged by the immigration and nationality directorate. Can he explain why he rejected that option and whether it remains under consideration for introduction?
