Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill - Commons Reason – in the House of Lords at 4:28 pm on 24 November 2025.
Lord Hanson of Flint:
Moved by Lord Hanson of Flint
That this House do not insist on its Amendment 37, to which the Commons have disagreed for their Reason 37A.
37A: Because the Commons do not consider it appropriate for there to be a statutory requirement to publish the data listed in the Amendment, the release of which should be determined within the wider publication of official statistics on migration.

My Lords, in dealing with this Motion we will also deal with Motion A1.
As a bill passes through Parliament, MPs and peers may suggest amendments - or changes - which they believe will improve the quality of the legislation.
Many hundreds of amendments are proposed by members to major bills as they pass through committee stage, report stage and third reading in both Houses of Parliament.
In the end only a handful of amendments will be incorporated into any bill.
The Speaker - or the chairman in the case of standing committees - has the power to select which amendments should be debated.
