Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the compatibility of the Government’s proposals on asylum with the (a) UN Convention on the Status of Refugees and (b) rule of law.
The New Plan for Immigration will deliver a fair but firm asylum system. We have a proud history of providing to protection to those who need it, and all policy measures will uphold our legal obligations, including the 1951 UN Convention relating to the Status of Refugees.
