Proceeding contribution from Lord Purvis of Tweed (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 19 February 2024. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Safety of Rwanda (Asylum and Immigration) Bill.


Safety of Rwanda (Asylum and Immigration) Bill

From a sedentary position. I agree with the noble Lord. I think Hansard picked it up: a successful 90% deterrent. The noble Lord heard me at Second Reading saying that we welcomed the Albania deal. An internationally legal, efficient, effective resettlement and relocation agreement is what works. This is not any of those. I happily give way to the noble Lord, Lord Murray.
