Immigration Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness May of Maidenhead (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 October 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Immigration Bill.

We obviously want to ensure that those making the decisions do so properly. My hon. Friend is absolutely right that it is only fair to those who are making applications that they get a decision that has been properly considered within a reasonable space of time. Sadly, that was not happening in the system we inherited, so we are having to make a lot of changes. I have been clear that that change cannot take place within six months; it will take some time before we can see the system that everybody wants.
