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

We will consider, at an early stage, whether the chief inspector should be invited to report on the implementation of the new detention powers and the operation of the standing operating procedures within six months.
