Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL]

My Lords, I thank the noble Lord for those comments but I still think that the list that was given to us would be illuminating for anybody who is trying to find their way through this legislation, which we have said all along is opaque and difficult to fathom. I am not sure that the slave trade is terribly relevant to the functions that have been passed down at this stage, which are the ones that we are talking about—the legislation relating to what has been passed from HMRC and from the commissioners to the Secretary of State and the Director of Border Revenue. I can only say that I hear what the Minister has said. I am sorry that we cannot get any further with this. That list ought to be somewhere on file, because it would be enormously helpful in the future.
