It is a privilege to conclude this debate under your chairmanship, Mr Howarth. I am grateful to all colleagues for an even-tempered and measured debate on an issue that is important to all our constituents. I am also grateful to the Government, who are making good progress on reducing net migration, and I am pleased that the Minister has just confirmed that we will soon hear more details.
The British people are tolerant and fair-minded. I believe that the least they can expect from national
policy makers is an immigration system that is both balanced and sustainable. I hope that today’s debate has advanced that collective pursuit.
Question put and agreed to.
Resolved,
That this House has considered the e-petition relating to immigration from Bulgaria and Romania in 2014.
7.53 pm
Sitting adjourned.
