Proceeding contribution from Lord Bassam of Brighton (Labour) 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

It is a bit difficult to do that because it would depend on the details of the implementation timetable, which we are giving further consideration to in our leisure hours. The noble Lord teases me about the Home Office, but it is a not-infrequent tease. It will not have escaped his notice that in the next parliamentary timetable there appear to be fewer Home Office Bills than we have been used to. I cannot say that that is going to be the case for ever, but it will free a bit more time so we can give issues of this sort more consideration.
