Debate
Border Security, Asylum and Immigration BillContribution
I recognise that there is never a circumstance in which that is ideal. I understand the difficulties that applicants may face in reaching a visa application centre when crossing a border or fleeing terror, persecution or war. However, the purpose of the Bill and its powers is to strengthen the Government’s ability to respond flexibly in these areas.
