UK Borders Bill

I do not deny that we should reflect on practice. That is why we issued guidance: so that we can impact on practice when it follows from legislation. On the point made by the noble Earl, Lord Listowel, obviously we will have to clarify some of these issues in correspondence. It is one of the points that we can pick up and I shall helpfully do that. I shall also ask officials to provide further information to the Committee about current practice in the health service on the way in which healthcare and treatment are charged. I can tell from my range of experiences that we are much more sensitive in dealing with these issues, but we should be concerned where we get examples of abuse.
