Proceeding contribution from Lord Avebury (Liberal Democrat) 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 noble Baroness, Lady Carnegy, may be thinking of the situation that used to be prevalent, whereby people applied to bogus institutions in this country as a means of entering the country illegally, and then disappeared underground. However, because the Government have limited the number of approved institutions for overseas students to come to, and because they are very rigorously checked and must sponsor a particular applicant, people are far less likely nowadays not to take up the places that they have been granted.
