Proceeding contribution from Lord Campbell-Savours (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 7 November 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on UK Border Agency.
UK Border Agency
My Lords, while not wishing in any way to endorse the cuts in UK Border Force staff which have led to delays of up to three hours in clearance at Heathrow, I wonder whether this is not one of the few times when instead of Ministers being driven into resignation due to the negligence of civil servants, as happened with Charles Clarke, a civil servant is being required to take the rap. It is a precedent that I fully support.
