The accompanying table sets out the number of civil penalties issued and the average and maximum fine (it is not practical to list the amount of each fine because of the numbers involved) imposed by the UK Border Agency for the period 1 March 2008 to 24 February 2010 and the number of fines issued in criminal courts for 2006 to 2008. These data are derived from local management information and are therefore provisional and liable to change. Employers against whom civil penalties have been issued by the UK Border Agency for the last three months including the amount of civil penalty imposed can be found on the UK Border Agency website at: www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/employersandsponsors/listemployers penalties/ This is updated quarterly.

Immigration: Detention Centres

My Lords, is it not correct that the whole policy is back to front? If the Government got their house in order and dealt with border controls and decided what it was that Britain needed and imposed quotas based on those needs, we would not have to behave in this inhumane way in dealing with detention and every other aspect of removal. Do we not need to get our policy right and clear in relation to people coming into this country, rather than constantly focusing on trying to get them out?
