Lords ChamberMy Lords, I think it says a lot about the pandemic. Very few people have actually travelled.
My Lords, the Government’s argument that the continuation of this scheme would be a security risk and would discriminate against non-EU students has been taken on board by those administering these trips and by other interested parties, such as the British Guild of Tourist Guides and the Institute of Tourist Guiding. They have put forward some constructive suggestions to find a way through. Is the Minister willing to meet them?
My Lords, we have found a way through. It is called a passport.
