Proceeding contribution from Lord Avebury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 13 December 2007. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Immigration and Nationality (Fees) (Amendment) Order 2007.
Immigration and Nationality (Fees) (Amendment) Order 2007
My Lords, one of the main points I made was that because of the procedures involved in these orders, as with the previous ones that we debated in March—I think the noble Lord replied to that debate as well—the House has to agree, first, that the charging should be made and, secondly, that the order is produced which sets the level of the charges. By that time it is too late, is it not, for Parliament to do anything about it because it can only accept or reject an order which is presented to it under an affirmative resolution?
