Immigration Bill

Proceeding contribution from Tim Loughton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 May 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Immigration Bill.

I also pay tribute to the Government for the immense amount they have done to help displaced Syrian refugees. Will the hon. and learned Gentleman also take on board the huge pressures that are already on children in care in this country? Some 70,000 children in England are in care, and there is a shortage of 10,000 foster carers. It is really vital that we are able to offer safekeeping to those children who are coming here and to do it sustainably and not to the detriment of the other children to whom we already have a responsibility.
