Saving Gateway Accounts Bill

Well, I will try the second question that the Minister did not answer before deciding what to do with the amendment. I also asked him why there was no restriction to residents. The Minister has explained how residence and ordinary residence would form the basis, but is it possible for somebody to be deemed to be ordinarily resident under the draft regulations, which fit within the power given here, without having any residence connection with UK? One aspect of my amendment was to seek to anchor the regulations in at least the mere fact of residence. That is to say, a person had to be resident, but could then go on and have something that deemed him to be ordinarily resident without escaping from being resident.
