Immigration

Secretary of State for the Home Department v ZAT and others (United National High Commissioner for Refugees and AIRE Centre, intervening) [2016] EWCA Civ 810, [2016] All ER (D) 22 (Aug)

The Court of Appeal held that the Upper Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) had erred in its approach to the test required to permit the processes and procedures of European Parliament and Council Regulation (EU) 604/2013 (the Dublin III Regulation) to be bypassed because of the right to family life, under art 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, at the initial procedural stages in the determination of which member state was responsible for processing an application for asylum.
