Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL]

First, I have an explanation. "In advance" meant that and "as soon as possible" was an attempt to take on board the urgency and frustration expressed from the Liberal Front Bench and elsewhere that we are asking people to make decisions and to discuss matters without total information. It is unlikely that we will be able to produce the guidance by Report, but the noble Baroness makes the valid point that we should try as far as possible to produce those cases—I have used the case of bereavement; she has used the case of domestic violence—that would clearly be relevant. Those are but two examples that might be added to. I hope that officials will take note of the Committee’s concern and that we will have that available as soon as we can.
