Debate
Refugees (Family Reunion) Bill [HL]Contribution
Who are family members for the purpose of this group? Noble Lords have addressed that to a certain extent. Amendments 10, 11 and 15 would restrict the age limit on children to being those under 18 on the day that the Act was passed. That strikes me as meaning that there would be an ever-decreasing number of children who are eligible, but the situations causing people to seek refuge will not decrease.
