    Page 101, line 26, at end insert—

"House of Commons Disqualification Act 1975 (c. 24)

In Part III of Schedule 1 to the House of Commons Disqualification Act 1975 (disqualifying offices) for "Adjudicator appointed for the purposes of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999." substitute "Adjudicator appointed for the purposes of Part 5 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.".

Page 102, line 26, at end insert—

"Courts and Legal Services Act 1990 (c. 41)

In Schedule 11 to the Courts and Legal Services Act 1990 (judges &c. barred from legal practice) for "Adjudicator for the purposes of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 (other than Asylum Support Adjudicator)" substitute "Adjudicator appointed for the purposes of Part 5 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002".
Tribunals and Inquiries Act 1992 (c. 53)

In paragraph 22 of Schedule 1 to the Tribunals and Inquiries Act 1992 (tribunals under the supervision of the Council on Tribunals)—
(a) in sub-paragraph (a), for "section 57 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999" substitute "section 75 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002", and
(b) in sub-paragraph (b), for "section 56 of that Act" substitute "section 94 of that Act".
Judicial Pensions and Retirement Act 1993 (c. 8)

In Part II of Schedule 1 to the Judicial Pensions and Retirement Act 1993 (offices which may be qualifying judicial offices) for "Adjudicator for the purposes of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 (other than Asylum Support Adjudicator)" substitute "Adjudicator appointed for the purposes of Part 5 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002".

17 Oct 2002 : Column 1058


In Schedule 5 to that Act (retirement provisions: the relevant offices) for "Adjudicator for the purposes of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 (other than Asylum Support Adjudicator)" substitute "Adjudicator appointed for the purposes of Part 5 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002"."

The noble Baroness said: These amendments are technical and consequential. They update references in five other Acts of Parliament, which refer to adjudicators appointed under the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999, to make clear that these references should now refer to adjudicators appointed under the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. I beg to move.

On Question, amendments agreed to.

Lord Filkin moved Amendment No. 32:


    Page 104, line 12, at end insert—

"Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (c. 29)

The following shall be substituted for paragraph 4 of Schedule 2 to the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (lifestyle offences: England and Wales: people trafficking)—
"4 (1) An offence under section 25, 25A or 25B of the Immigration Act 1971 (c. 77) (assisting unlawful immigration etc.).
(2) An offence under section 130 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 (traffic in prostitution)."
In paragraph 4 of Schedule 4 to that Act (lifestyle offences: Scotland: people trafficking) for "section 25(1) of the Immigration Act 1971 (c. 77) (assisting illegal entry etc.)" there shall be substituted "section 25, 25A or 25B of the Immigration Act 1971 (c. 77) (assisting unlawful immigration etc.)".
The following shall be substituted for paragraph 4 of Schedule 5 to that Act (lifestyle offences: Northern Ireland: people trafficking)—
"4 (1) An offence under section 25, 25A or 25B of the Immigration Act 1971 (c. 77) (assisting unlawful immigration etc.).
(2) An offence under section 130 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 (traffic in prostitution).""

The noble Lord said: This is a consequential amendment flowing from Clause 132. The majority of people who have entered the United Kingdom illegally have been assisted in their entry by organised criminals acting for gain. The amendment replaces the present reference in the Proceeds of Crime Act to an offence under Section 25(1) of the Immigration Act 1971 with references to the new sections inserted by Clause 132 of this Bill and to the new offence under Clause 134. I hope that that is clear. I beg to move.

On Question, amendment agreed to.
