Proceeding contribution from Liam Byrne (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 29 October 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on UK Borders Bill.


UK Borders Bill

I spend a good deal of my week visiting our ports and airports—I hope to go to Portsmouth tomorrow, and I was at Stansted a week or two ago. Border and Immigration Agency staff are a courteous bunch, and for those who travel internationally, as I used to—sadly, that is no longer the case—the courtesy of our welcome is good compared with others. If, however, the right hon. Gentleman were to point out specific examples, I would be happy to investigate them, because the courtesy of our welcome is long-established and important to preserve.
