The Lord Bishop of Sheffield

Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 October 2025

Debate

Asylum Claims: Religious Conversion

Contribution

My Lords, I declare an interest as patron of the ASSIST charity in Sheffield, which seeks to support refugees and asylum seekers. Is the Minister aware that the evidence provided by the former Anglican cleric just referenced was refuted by the right reverend Prelate the Bishop of Chelmsford in extensive oral evidence on the subject at a Home Affairs Select Committee meeting in the other place last year?
