Download or read book A Guide to the Asylum and Immigration Act Treatment of Claimants Etc 2004 written by Satvinder Singh Juss and published by Routledge Cavendish. This book was released on 2005 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immigration law and policy is so controversial and contested that major legislation has been passed every three years since 1993, with three Bills in the last four years alone. None, however, has been more major and controversial than the latest installment, the Asylum Immigration (Treatment of Claimants, etc.) Act 2004. This attempts to deal with applicants who lodge groundless appeals to delay removal and undocumented arrivals seeking asylum. It makes major institutional and structural changes. These will abolish the two-tier immigration appeals system, by instituting a single tier appellate body with limited rights of judicial review. The Government hopes that this will still safeguard the right of appeal and still provide an effective remedy for those whose application has been refused. There is considerable anxiety, however, about these changes amongst practitioners, advisers and students alike of immigration law. This guide provides a detailed background to the legilslation, discusses the context in which its various provisions are set, and explains how the law will now work.

Download or read book Family Life and the Law written by Rebecca Probert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings a modern critical approach to bear on the broad range of subjects that used to constitute 'family law.' A key consideration in this collection is the way in which law itself is premised upon, constructing a particular image of the family. By bringing different areas of law together, Probert et al suggest it is possible to explore how differing ideas about 'the family' inform different areas of law. This approach allows Family Life and the Law to analyze the extent to which the law is consistent and/or inconsistent in its concept and treatment of the family across and within disciplines. The book is particularly timely in view of the passage of the Civil Partnership Act 2004, the implications of which reverberate throughout family law and allied disciplines, and the current reconsideration of the position of cohabiting couples.
Download or read book Immigration under New Labour written by Somerville, Will and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2007-09-26 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lurid headlines on every aspect of migration have been a consistent feature of the last decade, from worries over asylum seekers to concerns about unprecedented economic immigration from Eastern Europe. This book presents the first comprehensive account of government policy on immigration over the last ten years, providing an in-depth analysis of policy and legislation since Tony Blair and New Labour were first elected. The account begins by placing policy change under Labour in their proper historical context, before examining the key policy themes - economic migration; security; integration; asylum; delivery - of the last decade. Through an analysis of such policy themes, the author contends that immigration policy has undergone an intense and innovative transformation in the period from May 1997 to May 2007. Arguing that a more plural system of governance exists, the author challenges traditional accounts of policy development. By addressing the various influences on immigration policymaking, from globalisation, the European Union and the law, to politics, the media and the networks of special interests, he seeks to provide a holistic explanation for the transformation of immigration policy. The author concludes with an evaluation of Labour's immigration reforms, and whether government policy can be judged a success. The book will be of interest to policymakers, academics, students studying immigration, and readers interested in serious current affairs.

Download or read book The Child in International Refugee Law written by Jason M. Pobjoy and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 827 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children are the victims of some of the most devastating examples of state-sanctioned and private human rights abuse. In increasing numbers, they are attempting to find international protection, and are forced to navigate complex administrative and legal processes that fail to take into account their distinct needs and vulnerabilities. The key challenges they face in establishing entitlement to refugee protection are their invisibility and the risk of incorrect assessment. Drawing on an extensive and original analysis of jurisprudence of leading common law jurisdictions, this book undertakes an assessment of the extent to which these challenges may be overcome by greater engagement between international refugee law and international law on the rights of the child. The result is the first comprehensive study on the manner in which these two mutually reinforcing legal regimes can interact to strengthen the protection of refugee children.
