UK Borders Bill

Proceeding contribution from Julian Brazier (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 March 2007. It occurred during Legislative debate on UK Borders Bill.
Yes, it is. My understanding is that motion 10, about which the previous points of order were made, applies to England, Wales and Scotland, but not to Northern Ireland, which has separate regulations. However, it covers some matters—for example, adoption—which are devolved to Scotland. My Adjournment debate on the subject showed that, when the matter was considered in Scotland, the Scottish Government gave assurances that negotiations would be held between the Scottish Executive and the Government here. No report has been given to the House about the outcome of those negotiations, yet we are expected to vote tonight.
