Proceeding contribution from Lord Bassam of Brighton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 2 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on UK Borders Bill.


UK Borders Bill

I will take that point away and will happily write to the noble Earl if he wishes that information to be put in writing. On the point of the noble Baroness, Lady Carnegy of Lour, we will of course keep that issue under review as part of our dialogue with the Scottish Executive. We have police officers in all the ports who believe that they have the necessary powers. The Scottish Executive take the view that they do not need the legislation in the way that the noble Baroness has set out. That is the situation, but it is one of those things that can change, as the noble Baroness well knows.
