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
I think that the noble Lord gave figures for the years up to 2005. As he knows, the immigration statistics for 2006 are not yet published and are not due until August. It would be very useful if the noble Lord could give us the number of children whose age was disputed in 2006 and, if possible, in the months up to June 2007, because I believe that the numbers are reducing and that the 3,000 a year mentioned by the Minister in previous debates is no longer applicable.
