The amendment gives me the opportunity to ask a question, although in doing so I shall probably display my profound ignorance. Is it the Government’s intention to have two tiers of scrutiny for each person coming from a country for which visas are required? Let us assume that the person gets a visa in whatever country it is and then arrives at a port here. Is it totally exceptional for that person to be refused entry, having already obtained a visa? If the person can still be refused entry, that seems to devalue the whole principle of the visa system.
