Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Bill

I should like to add one point to what has been said so powerfully by many Members of the Committee. I support the amendments fervently. I refer to the visa queue times. Although I have read and reread it in the Immigration Advisory Service briefing, I simply could not believe that there are three countries where you have to wait three months to get into a queue. Most of us are used to going to India House and complaining that we have to wait 48 hours. But if you are a student and you have been refused or an overstayer, it is no good, as the noble Baroness, Lady Anelay, said earlier, saying you have to go back to the beginning, because the whole opportunity of higher education is lost when one of these decisions is made. The case for looking again at the training of ECOs is overwhelming.
