My Lords, I apologise for interrupting the noble Lord but we usually have 10 minutes for a Urgent Question repeated from the other place. Those 10 minutes are up, and we have other business to transact.
I have a question for the Chief Whip. Did the 10 minutes include only Back-Benchers? Judging by the clock it did not.

Lords ChamberMy Lords, it is the turn of the Labour Benches and I suggest that we hear from the noble Lord, Lord Campbell-Savours.
My Lords, the Leader of the House is a member of the Cabinet and therefore I am sure that she will know the answer to my question: is it the Government’s intention that at the ferry port at Belfast there will be no customs officials or immigration officers in attendance with the remit or ability to check non-UK citizens travelling to ports in Scotland, England or Wales?

Lords ChamberMy Lords, I think we should hear from the Conservative Benches and then perhaps we can turn to the Labour Benches.
