Proceeding contribution from James Paice (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on National Security.
National Security
Does not the six-month threshold for the requirement on foreign nationals to have biometric ID leave a large loophole for would-be terrorists, who might seek to come to the country for a shorter period? Obviously, there is a serious issue of cost, and we cannot get away from that, but apart from cost, is there any reason why that threshold should allow a period as long as six months? ... No.
