Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill

I rise to interrupt only briefly. We are to finish the Committee stage on Thursday, so I am not convinced that I will be able to report back in time. I take the point he makes about the distinction between the words ““thinks”” and ““satisfied””, and I shall pass that to parliamentary counsel. That is his problem rather than mine in this instance. However, I hope that this is not just about the Children’s Commissioner. We are always in danger of latching on to a solution. But I hope that when the noble Lord has had a chance to consider all the things that I have said we will do, he will feel more comfortable with the arrangements. I want to discuss with the Children’s Commissioners his views on our position on these issues and to take any suggestions he can offer that may be of benefit, given that he is a very experienced person. However, I would not want it to be thought that if the Children’s Commissioner gives his approval, that will be fine. We have a range of things we need to do and it is important to make the point.
