Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 September 2025
Debate
Border Security, Asylum and Immigration BillContribution
With all that in mind, I hope that these amendments will enable us to understand how the information that has been provided by such a wide range of organisations will enable the Government to look at changing the measures that they currently use and to implement measures, such as those contained in these amendments, both to increase the number of people who voluntarily return to their home who are detained for the purpose of removal and to ensure that we do not have the ins and outs of a continuing cycle of removal and bail in immigration detention, with people going in and out without seeing an end in sight. There is a lot to be dealt with here. A lot of expert independent inspection advice has been given to the Government and made available to both Houses through our Joint Committee on Human Rights and the Home Affairs Committee in the House of Commons. It requires action, which these amendments seek to fulfil in this part of the Bill.
