IMMIGRATION officials have launched an investigation into revelations that the Attorney General, Baroness Scotland, employed an illegal migrant.
The Government’s top law officer sacked her housekeeper, Loloahi Tapui, yesterday, after it emerged that the 27-year-old Tongan was in the UK illegally. Lady Scotland, who has denied knowing Tapui did not have the right to work here, faces a civil penalty of up to £10,000 if found guilty.
A spokesman for the UK Border Agency said: “The UK Border Agency will conduct this investigation as they would any other investigation into allegations of illegal working.”
