Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL]

I shall just probe a little further on this. Is the Minister saying that if, on the other side of a border, in another country, embassy staff are suspicious that there may be an ulterior motive in some of the trafficking that is going on involving children, they would alert people at this end? Will they be trained sufficiently to do just that, so that as, when or if any of those individuals and children come over, border staff will be sufficiently alert to deal with the situation? Are we satisfied that that is happening now? If not, what is in this Bill that will make it more effective?
