I was not aware of any political leader saying it.
As Deputy Jim O'Callaghan said, the committee will have a limited role in regard to the statutory instrument but I hope that by giving Ms Emily Logan a hearing today, there will be a generous transposition so people will be given appropriate access and an effective right to work. As the commission said, if their rights are undermined, their ability to integrate and live a proper life here in the longer term will be constrained.
I thank the delegation again for attending.
