Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 October 2025
Debate
Border Security, Asylum and Immigration BillContribution
A brief final point is that my amendment is needed in the interests of the Home Office, as well as of immigrants and asylum seekers. The exclusive use of qualified professional interpreters and translators will help to achieve absolute clarity as to the claimant’s case, thereby avoiding any potential later dispute or allegation that the Home Office has misunderstood the claim so it must be reconsidered. For all these reasons, I beg to move.
