Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill

I was only a very minor cog in that machine. I accept the noble Lord’s remarks and what he said about the remarks made yesterday by the noble Lord, Lord Elystan-Morgan; namely, that they referred to both Governments. But does the noble Lord not agree that this Bill has reached a new level of farce that has not been achieved by the Home Office, as it used to be, or the Ministry of Justice for many years? It is way beyond anything that has ever happened before and now to have this wonderful government amendment changing one schedule for another really does take the biscuit. The noble Lord need not blush. He can get up and just say ““Mea culpa”” or ““Department mea culpa””, but this is not very good, is it?
