The Government's five-year Programme for National Recovery contains a commitment to—
". . . introduce comprehensive reforms of the immigration, residency and asylum systems, which will include a statutory appeals system and set out rights and obligations in a transparent way."
These commitments are being implemented by the Government through further development of the Immigration, Residence and Protection Bill 2010 which we have had restored to the Order Paper for that purpose. Further work is currently underway on the details of the Bill to take account of current Government policy objectives.
