Luke Taylor

Liberal Democrat — Sutton and Cheam

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 December 2024

Debate

Migration and Border Security

Contribution

While we are reassured by the previous answers that the Home Secretary is committed to increasing the processing of asylum claims to clear the backlog, the Liberal Democrats would push her to go further and faster. Will she consider our calls to end the ban on asylum seekers working, and reduce the time limit to three months so that they are able to contribute to their cost of living, integrate into society and start to pay a fair share within the communities that they wish to join?
