Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL]

I know that my noble friend is trying to answer the points, but would he not agree that there is a credibility problem here? For the person applying for citizenship, where is the evidence that any of the people who will be handling his application have ever undertaken voluntary community service? It is not something that is required of people who are born into citizenship in this country. We do not require citizens to participate in voluntary activity. It seems to me that there is a credibility problem that the Government need to address if they want to move forward with this idea.
