§ Lord McIntosh of Haringeyasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether the period for consultation on prevention of illegal working is now complete; and, if so, whether they will now place their summary of responses, and the responses themselves, in the Library of the House.
§ The Minister of State, Home Office (Baroness Blatch)Organisations were requested to submit by 31st January written responses to the Government's consultation document on the prevention of illegal working. Responses received since then have also been considered. I have placed in the Library a list of those who had responded in writing to the consultation document by noon on 20th February, together with a summary of the main points made in those responses. It is for those who responded to decide whether to make their submissions public.
