What plans does the Minister have to end the direct provision system? It is more than three years since the McMahon report was published, which has been discussed at length in the House. Judgment was passed in the court case on the right to work, which is extremely restricted and very difficult for people in direct provision to access. I ask the Minister to comment on the latest figures on the number of children in direct provision and how that affects them.
