Proceeding contribution from Vicky Ford (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 July 2023. It occurred during Debate on bill on Illegal Migration Bill.
Illegal Migration Bill
I am particularly interested in the arrival of unaccompanied children in this country, because obviously the Minister has tightened up the eight-day period for them on exit. I believe that he just agreed with me that the standards for age-appropriate accommodation
in detention centres need to be updated to look more like those for children’s homes. Is he prepared to concede that no unaccompanied child should be put in such a detention centre until that update of the rules has been undertaken?
