Proceeding contribution from Lord Brett (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 1 April 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL].


Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL]

My Lords, I thank the noble Lord for his question, not because I can provide an answer on the issue of rendition, but because it allows me the opportunity to respond to the previous question posed by the noble Lord, Lord Ramsbotham. The Government do not agree that a new feasibility study is needed post the 2002 study. I know that this position will not sit well with the noble Lord but that is the position of the Government.
