Home Office Press Release
25 June 2007
The Border and Immigration Agency's commitment to keeping children safe from harm was reinforced today with the announcement of an overhaul of the Agency's policies concerning children by Immigration Minister Liam Byrne.

A new amendment to the UK Borders Bill will for the first time place a legal obligation on the Border and Immigration Agency to keep children safe from harm. The Agency will have a duty to have regard to a new statutory Code of Practice when dealing with children as it carries out its immigration functions.
