Clause 2 - Naturalisation: spouse of citizen
Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Bill
6:30 pm
Mr Simon Hughes (North Southwark and Bermondsey, Liberal Democrat)
I am grateful for that answer. It was not intended to be a trick question. I wanted to find out whether the Government had applied their general desire to modernise and bring things up to date in this area. I accept the Minister's point. My noble Friend Lord Lester of Herne Hill has introduced a Civil Partnerships Bill in the House of Lords. I hope that in due course people will apply logic throughout Government policy, and I look forward to progress in that area.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 2 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
