My recent work in Parliament – see more entries here

• New Clause 5 – Liability to deportation of certain residents despite section 7 of the Immigration Act 1971 | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  I want to raise a few alarm bells in terms of what I feel about this measure, and I hope the Minister can answer me clearly. My misgivings arise partly […]
• Clause 49 – Enforcement | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  Very briefly, although I think this is a good clause because it allows for fines and payments to be made, I want to echo a question asked of us in […]
• Clause 44 – Content of slavery and human trafficking statements | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  I add my support—for a change in this Committee—to the broad approach taken in this part of the Bill. I realise that the Bill’s scope is narrow, but have the […]
• Clause 43 – Assistance and support for potential victims | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  My concern is that subsection (3) provides the Home Secretary with a broad, unqualified power to disagree with the assessments that the Minister has just mentioned. Amendment 71 seems to […]
• Clause 43 – Assistance and support for potential victims | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
• Clause 43 – Assistance and support for potential victims | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  I beg to move amendment 70, in clause 43, page 45, line 1, leave out subsection (3). This amendment would remove the provision which enables the Secretary of State to […]
• Clause 43 – Assistance and support for potential victims | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  It is my view and that of a wide range of refugee and modern slavery organisations that clause 43, particularly subsection (3), is incompatible with article 12 of the Council […]
• Clause 39 – Removal of duty to grant leave to remain to assist recovery | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  My new clause 29 is intended as a replacement for clause 39, being a redrafted version of it. It would give limited leave to remain to all victims of slavery […]
• Clause 39 – Removal of duty to grant leave to remain to assist recovery | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  I asked in my speech not about people claiming asylum but about those here under other forms of immigration status. Does the Minister not see the replacement of those with […]
• Clause 38 – Disqualification from protection | Immigration and Asylum Bill | Public Bill Committees
  October 27, 2026
  I wish to speak briefly against clause 38. Public order disqualification, in the way it has been applied so far, has exacerbated ongoing systemic issues arising from failures in identification…
