Proceeding contribution from Lord Sharpe of Epsom (Conservative) 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

I do not believe I have, my Lords. What I am trying to say here is that the joint committee has to make reports to Parliament in order for Parliament to keep it under review. That is what is under discussion at the meeting this week. So it does answer the question—perhaps not in the way that the noble and learned Lord would like, for which, obviously, I apologise.
