On this rather damp, depressing and unfortunately climatically unpleasant day, I welcome hon. Members to the 11th sitting in Committee of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill. Progress is indeed being made. It seems a long time since I was in the Chair, but I know that Tuesday’s proceedings were well chaired by the third Chairman who had to be appointed, Mr. Frank Cook.
