Beoku-Betts v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2008] UKHL 39, [2008] All ER (D) 335

In determining an Art 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (the Convention) appeal against refusal of asylum and leave to enter, it is necessary to take into account the effect of the appellant’s proposed removal upon all the members of his family unit. Together those members enjoy a single family life and whether or not the removal would interfere disproportionately with it has to be looked at by reference to the family unit as a whole and the impact of removal upon each member.
