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 consider every couple of weeks the arrangements between BAA, the Border and Immigration Agency and other partners, and I must confess that we have not yet got the reception arrangements entirely right. I am not sure that BAA contractors have quite matched the service that the hon. Gentleman has observed at Dallas Fort Worth. I am grateful to the hon. Member for Ashford (Damian Green) for the opportunity to clarify this point and glad that he agrees with the principle. He will remember from debates in Committee that the code of practice that will need to be set alongside the implementation of the civil penalty regime will be subject to public and other scrutiny. This is one of the most important questions on which we will need to consult as regards that code. It is possible that parents could be designated, but so could permanent carers, relatives with parental responsibility for children in their care, or guardians. Of course, before we seek to draft the code we will consult local authorities and child exploitation and online protection teams, as well as Government and non-Government agencies. I hope that the House will see the results of that consultation fully reflected in the code that we put to it for consideration. Lords amendment agreed to.
