Proceeding contribution from Fiona Mactaggart (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 September 2013. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Spousal Visas.


Spousal Visas

One of the things that has distressed me about the many cases that I face in Slough is having to say to one or two of my constituents who are dual nationals from another EU country that it would be in their interests not to use their British citizenship, but to go and work in the country of another EU citizenship—say, Irish—and then bring their spouse here. As an EU citizen this rule would not divide their family. Any EU citizen who is using the free movement of workers privileges can be joined by their spouse.
