UK Borders Bill

Proceeding contribution from Earl of Listowel (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on UK Borders Bill.

I apologise to the Minister for not having made myself clear. I did not really want the Minister to look at the particular case, rather the general principle of whether enforcement of statute is being sensitive enough about issues such as trafficking, which should be considered as mitigating circumstances in the application of those statutes.
