Clause 33
Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [Lords]
9:00 am
Damian Green (Shadow Minister, Home Affairs; Ashford, Conservative)
May I clear up a procedural point? The Minister is one of the Treasury’s representatives on Earth—I understand that he is a Treasury Minister as well as a Home Office Minister. He says that this is to do with the all-powerful Treasury. Presuming the Bill becomes law, does that mean that one Home Office Minister must necessarily also be a Treasury Minister? Is that a permanent feature of the arrangements that link HMRC and ukba?
