UK Borders Bill

Proceeding contribution from Paul Rowen (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 February 2007. It occurred during Debate on bills on UK Borders Bill.
I shall have to get back to the hon. Gentleman about that. Those are real cases, involving people whom the judge could have ordered to be deported. The problem is not that the powers for deportation do not exist, but that they have not been used by the judiciary. We should not make a new rule that makes things manifestly unfair just because the system is not operating properly at the moment.
