Clause 1 - Assisting unlawful immigration
Asylum and Immigration (Treatment of Claimants, etc.) Bill
9:45 am
Ms Beverley Hughes (Minister of State (Citizenship and Immigration), Home Office; Stretford and Urmston, Labour)
I can only say to the hon. Gentleman that our legal advice is that, to ensure that we get it right on this occasion, we need to make it clear that those two definitional phrases, ''member state'' and ''immigration law'', have the same meaning as in section 25. If it is helpful, I shall write to him with a detailed explanation.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 1 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
