In response to the Children's Commissoner letter to the Immigration Minister in August - over two months ago : http://www.scribd.com/doc/171888408/letter-to-mark-harper-mp-on-new-family-migration-rules

Predictably banal and disappointing unfortunately.

Previously :

(September) England's Children's Commissioner expresses concern that UK in breach of UN Convention on Rights of the Child. http://britcits.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/england-childrens-commissioner.html

The Immigration Minister completely fails to address this point.

(June) UK Children's Commissioners endorse the concerns of the APPG Migration report on family immigration policy.
