Nationality and Borders Bill

Proceeding contribution from David Simmonds (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 20 April 2022. It occurred during Debate on bills on Nationality and Borders Bill.

Does my right hon. Friend share the concern that many of us have who wish to see the Government succeed in their endeavours, which is that the legal test for anyone opposing immigration control is not that there are safe and legal routes in general, but that a person specifically had access to a safe and legal route but chose not to use it, which may undermine some of the objectives we wish to see? Safe and legal routes need to be much broader if they are going to work as an effective tool as part of this policy.
