Proceeding contribution from Bishop of Winchester (Bishops (affiliation)) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 11 October 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on UK Borders Bill.
UK Borders Bill
My Lords, in passing, it would be especially serious if the applicant were back in the DRC or Somalia, because there they would be in grievous danger. The Government were returning people to the DRC until very recently and had to be stopped in the courts from doing so. The basic point at issue is, to put it in rather un-legal terms, that the faster the track the more critical the quality of the legal assistance. I hope the Minister will reflect on that when he responds.
