My Lords, I said on Report that I would table further amendments regarding the power to make regulations about the removal of family members.

In its 24th report the Delegated Powers and Regulatory Reform Committee remained concerned that the scope of the delegated power was still too broad and, as it currently stands, should be subject to the affirmative procedure. In seeking to address this concern, the amendment removes reference to making further provision for the removal of family members under any provision of the immigration Acts and limits the scope of the regulations so that they can not extend beyond the two provisions described, namely the time period for removal and the service of the notice to family members.

I hope that this reassures noble Lords that this limits the regulations strictly to procedural matters that should be subject to the negative resolution procedure. I therefore beg to move.

Amendment 1 agreed.

Clause 15: Right of appeal to First-tier Tribunal

Amendment 2

Moved by Lord Wallace of Tankerness

2: Clause 15, page 14, line 11, leave out from “84” to “, and” in line 13
