Business of the Day
1. Immigration and Asylum Bill: Second Reading
Until 10.00pm (Standing Order No. 9(3))
Relevant Documents:
Oral evidence taken before the Justice Committee on 7 July, on Immigration and Asylum Appeals, HC 522
Oral evidence taken before the Home Affairs Committee on 16 December 2025, on Asylum and Returns policy, Session 2024-26, HC 1579
Max Wilkinson
Mr Will Forster
Ed Davey
Wendy Chamberlain
That this House, while recognising the urgent need to bring fairness, order and control to the asylum system and bring down the asylum backlog, declines to give a Second Reading to the Immigration and Asylum Bill because its provisions fail to address the gaps in the asylum system created by Brexit and will not stop the dangerous small-boat crossings in the English Channel; because the establishment of the Independent Immigration Appeals Authority will fail to deliver a swift reduction in the appeals backlog, and relies on adjudicators without significant legal expertise, which is likely to increase further appeals in the justice system; because the Bill gives the Secretary of State powers to require payments from those granted refugee status, which risks creating an unjust financial burden on them; because the replacement of permanent refugee status with a core protection model offering only temporary protection is likely to subject refugees to greater insecurity and reduce integration, while placing a greater administrative burden on an already overstretched Home Office; because its reforms to the Modern Slavery Act 2015 risk discouraging victims from coming forward and making it more difficult for the authorities to catch and prosecute the criminal gangs responsible for modern slavery; and because the Bill’s changes to claims made under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights are a political stunt which does not materially alter what is already in the gift of British courts.
Richard Tice
Lee Anderson
Sarah Pochin
Danny Kruger
Robert Jenrick
Andrew Rosindell
Suella BravermanJames McMurdock
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Asylum and Immigration Bill because, while the UK remains within a legal framework for control of the UK’s borders constrained by the UK’s membership of the European Convention on Human Rights, and in the absence of Government commitments to return illegal migrants on the day that they arrive, and to deport all foreign nationals who are currently detained in UK prisons, the measures in the Bill cannot be effective.
Mrs Kemi Badenoch
Chris Philp
Rebecca Harris
Matt Vickers
Katie Lam
Sarah Bool
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Immigration and Asylum Bill, while welcoming some of its provisions, because the Bill does not ensure all foreign criminals and illegal immigrants will be deported; does not end asylum for illegal immigrants; does not stop modern slavery claims suspending removal; does not stop illegal immigrants getting citizenship; does not make the changes the Government promised to reduce the numbers of people eligible for Indefinite Leave to Remain; because the Bill will allow sponsor human rights claims, which will enable people outside the UK to enter under human rights grounds; because measures in the Bill such as narrowing the ability to make Article 8 and modern slavery claims will not be effective while the UK remains in the European Convention on Human Rights and the Human Rights Act 1998 remains in force; and because the provisions in the Bill are not capable of eliminating illegal immigration.
Jeremy Corbyn
Iqbal Mohamed
Shockat Adam
Mr Adnan Hussain
Ayoub Khan
Zarah Sultana
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Immigration and Asylum Bill because of the impact it will have on the thousands of eligible Afghans and their families who remain stranded in Afghanistan and the region, at continuing risk from the Taliban, following the closure of the Afghan Resettlement Programme to new applicants, and the Ministry of Defence’s decision to end in-country relocation assistance; because the Bill will do nothing to assist Afghan families who are already in the UK, separated from spouses and children with no route to be reunited, following the indefinite pause on refugee family reunion; because the Bill’s proposed core protection model and new Independent Immigration Appeals Authority will add further uncertainty and years of repeat review for Afghans already granted protection, rather than the stability their service warrants; because the new power to charge recognised refugees for support received while their claims were being processed will fall on Afghans who had no choice but to rely on it while awaiting decisions on their asylum claims; because the Bill contains no measures to expand or reopen safe and legal routes for Afghans who assisted the UK and remain in danger; and because the Bill does nothing to resolve the plight of Afghan nationals who served alongside British forces.

That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Immigration and Asylum Bill because, while recognising the need for an effective asylum system, the Bill fails to uphold the UK’s obligations under the Refugee Convention, the Council of Europe Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings and the European Convention on Human Rights; weakens protections for family and private life by narrowing the interpretation of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights; restricts access to justice for people who appeal an asylum decision; introduces measures likely to damage integration and community cohesion; will do nothing to restore public confidence as it fails to deliver the controlled and compassionate asylum system that the public want to see; undermines efforts by devolved administrations to support people seeking protection in a trauma-informed and rights-based way; provides no new safe routes for seeking asylum here; makes it harder for families to reunite and remain together, while the dedicated family reunion route is also suspended; restricts access to support and recovery for trafficking victims, and fails to adequately safeguard unaccompanied or trafficked children; does nothing to increase the right to work for people seeking asylum, increasing reliance on Home Office support, while levying fees on financially vulnerable refugees; fails to improve poor initial decision-making that contributes to appeals and higher costs; and overall represents a shift away from protection based on need and the UK’s longstanding international obligations.
