| Current Issues in Immigration, Asylum, Human Rights and EC Law (Nov 2008) |
£ 40.00 plus 15.0% VAT |
| Update Nov 2008 cy.pdf (0.99 MB) |
If you were unable to attend our one day conference in October then you may wish to purchase the training materials from the day. They give an update on critical areas of practice for all those working in the field of immigration law, both practitioners and decision makers.
The first and second sections begins with the latest developments in asylum and human rights law, including armed conflict and family life in the light of the landmark House of Lords decisions of Summer 2008. It moves on to an update on European Community free movement law, addressing evolving developments in the Tribunal, higher courts and European Court of Justice.
The third section starts off with a tour of developments both in the immigration rules themselves and the case law that interprets them, ranging from “third party” rights to the evolving law on deportation of foreign criminals.
The final session gives a look ahead to the new era that awaits us in 2009, with the wholesale abolition of existing immigration law and its replacement by the provisions of the Immigration and Citizenship Act. Meanwhile The Tribunals Courts and Services Act 2007 gives the government a chance to end the days of reconsideration and review, and to introduce a jurisdiction to consider judicial reviews in a new Upper Immigration Tribunal. |
