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
No, I did not. I suggested sufficiently developed statutory guidance along the lines of the Hillingdon pro forma. So instead of having two local authorities offering their procedures, as they do at the moment—these procedures, as I said, were adopted by the courts in the Merton case—the Government should develop those procedures and institute them throughout the country so that there is a uniform approach to age determination but one that does not include dental X-rays.
