Proceeding contribution from Lord Hylton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 5 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on UK Borders Bill.


UK Borders Bill

Once again, the noble Lord, Lord Avebury, has, with the benefit of his encyclopaedic knowledge, put his finger on some important matters. As a relative beginner in these difficult areas, I would only ask why, if a non-national already has a biometric visa and is coming to this country only for a short period—however ““short”” may be defined—he should need a BID as well.
