Proceeding contribution from David Ruffley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 October 2013. It occurred during Debate on bill on Immigration Bill.
Immigration Bill
In June 2003 the then Immigration Minister, Beverly Hughes, said that the impact on migration into Britain of 10 accession countries joining the European Union would be “minimal”, with 13,000 migrants expected a year. That was laughably inaccurate. Can the Home Secretary assure us that the Bill will ensure that there is no repeat of that shocking open-door immigration policy?
