Proceeding contribution from Baroness Anelay of St Johns (Conservative) 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

I am grateful to the noble Lord for giving way. Has he also looked at evidence that is adduced in family courts, where paediatricians have to make assessments on the basis of screening techniques and X-rays of children who have been subject to malnutrition and abuse in this country? They have determined that one can use X-rays accurately to determine a child’s age, set against the knowledge of the experience the child has gone through.
