Criminal Finances Bill

Proceeding contribution from Ben Wallace (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 February 2017. It occurred during Debate on bills on Criminal Finances Bill.

Perhaps I can inform my hon. Friend and the rest of the House on the visa issue. We can refuse a visa to a person who does not meet the immigration rules. Evidence that a person has been involved in organised crime or in human rights abuses or violations would be taken into account when considering a visa application. We can already do that; the power is there with the Government, and we have exercised it in the past.
