Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 October 2025

Debate

Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill

Contribution

The Home Office will work closely with law enforcement partners post-implementation to evaluate whether the addition of these offences to Schedule 1 would materially bolster the response to dismantling organised immigration crime networks. I reassure the noble Lords that should evidence emerge that these measures would be beneficial, the Government have the ability to widen the list of offences in Schedule 1 through secondary legislation.
