HC Deb 10 December 1985 vol 88 c581W
Mr. Cohen

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will explain his criteria for continuing to detain an immigrant following representations from an hon. Member that that immigrant should be released from detention whilst the Minister considers the evidence relating to that immigrant's case.

Mr. Waddington

The criteria employed are those set out in the reply I gave to a question from the hon. Member for Walthamstow (Mr. Deakins) on 9 December. When representations are made against continued detention the case is reviewed at the level of immigration inspector.
