UK Borders Bill

I rise not to speak on the amendment, because I was not present when it was being debated, but simply to try to assist the Grand Committee. I have spoken to the Minister and am aware that we must finish at 6 pm. Noble Lords’ deliberations might appear to be guillotined if the Minister were in full flow and noble Lords rightly wished to intervene further on this vital matter, so I just pose the question as to whether the Committee might wish to avoid appearing to lose that opportunity by deferring the Minister’s response until next time. If we do not do that, we will have to finish as the clock strikes six and he will have to continue with his speech next time. I leave it in the hands of noble Lords; it is just a suggestion.
