That this House thanks the Latin American ambassadors to the UK for meeting the Latin America and Brazil All Party Parliamentary groups; shares the concerns raised by them relating to the issue of immigration, which included the application of restrictive rules that will negatively impact on hundreds of Latin American students, the criminalisation of legitimate migrants and the heavy-handed treatment of Latin American citizens at British points of entry; and calls on the Government to meet the Latin American ambassadors to the UK and to address these concerns as a matter of urgency.
