Mrs. Brinton

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department when Part III of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 will be brought into effect. [1105]

The Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 does not specify a date by which Part III has to be implemented. While it was not proposed to implement Part III before October 2001, the actual implementation date is currently under review and a final decision has yet to be taken.
