HL Deb 11 October 1999 vol 605 c13WA
Lord Morris of Castle Morris

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Which post will be used as a trial for the tape recording of entry clearance interviews, as recommended in the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee Report on entry clearance work of July 1998. [HL3978]

Baroness Scotland of Asthal

The entry clearance section at the British Deputy High Commission in Bombay will undertake this trial. The trial will run for a three-month period from August until October this year. A further three months will be set aside to allow applicants time to register any observations arising from the trial. An evaluation of the trial should therefore be completed in February 2000.
