Noble Lords
The Lord Privy Seal (Baroness Evans of Bowes Park)
My Lords, we will hear from the Cross Benches.
Lord Green of Deddington
My Lords, does the noble Baroness agree that the Government are to be congratulated on the large number of child refugees they have taken? Does she further agree that we need to proceed with care in that if we take refugee children who have already arrived in Europe, we will tempt other families to send their children off at great risk? It is a much better course to do what the Government are doing: take them from the region itself and deal with Christians in a fair and sensible way.
