Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill

I hope not to have to detain the House too long with this group of amendments and the new clause, given that all make minor technical and drafting amendments to the Bill. I am conscious that there are quite a number of them, and am happy to deal with any points that Members wish to make. I am also conscious, however, that later groups of amendments raise other issues on which many Members wish to speak. I hope that it will be understood that I am not showing any disrespect to the House by not going through the detail of every amendment, which I would be happy to do if Members encouraged me to. I assure Members on both sides of the House, however, that the amendments are minor, drafting, technical and consequential changes. I therefore hope that Members on both sides of the House will be pleased to see me sit down as swiftly as I stood up.
