Crime and Courts Bill [HL]

Debate between Lord Woolf and Lord Taylor of Holbeach

Wednesday 12th December 2012 Lords Chamber

[Lord Taylor of Holbeach]

I think that would be counterproductive. If the noble Lord thinks through the circumstances of that question, he will understand that.

[Lord Woolf]

Am I right in thinking that this form of appeal from outside the country has been part of the immigration process for a substantial period? In addition, is it not the case that it can be a written process and that forms can be used for the purposes of the appeal?

[Lord Taylor of Holbeach]

The noble and learned Lord is perfectly correct in that regard.
