Ali v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2016] UKSC 60, [2016] All ER (D) 90 (Nov)

The Supreme Court gave guidance on appeals relating to deportation of foreign criminals which were based on Art 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights and held that the policies adopted by the Secretary of State and given effect by the Immigration Rules were a relevant and important consideration. Accordingly, the Upper Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) had erred in failing to consider them and other relevant matters.
