Proceeding contribution from Earl of Sandwich (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 18 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on UK Borders Bill.


UK Borders Bill

The Minister asked for more pertinent arguments, and we have heard a very pertinent argument from the noble Lord, Lord Avebury. The Law Society points out that this will bring an enormous increase in applications. There will be more judicial reviews and more letter writing to and from Members of Parliament. Do the Government really want more paperwork?
