Modern Slavery Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord James of Blackheath (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 February 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Modern Slavery Bill.

I thank the Minister for his response to my points, but may I just put two questions to him? I will wholly understand if he chooses to answer in writing afterwards. First, will he give consideration to a comment that appears in the great book in the Library, attributed to Herbert Morrison from early 1945, to the effect that in any case where an orphanage or local council alone authorised a migration, it should require the countersignature of the Secretary of State?
