Illegal Migration Bill

I am sorry that I cannot stand up, but I thank the Minister for giving way. This is exactly the issue that I raised with his colleague earlier this evening: the gap before a child is allocated to a local authority. While it was good news that yesterday the number of those who had not been allocated was zero, we know that there have been gaps and, because there have been gaps, there is concern. That is why we are trying to find out what the status is and who is responsible. If the Home Office is not responsible and the child has not been allocated to a local authority, who is responsible for them—even if it is for only a few days?
