Since October 2000, when the Asylum and Immigration Act 1999 came into force, 1,546 Judicial Reviews have been lodged against asylum decisions. Of the 645 Judicial Reviews where the final outcome has been made known, 69 applicants (10.7 per cent.) have been successful in obtaining the relief sought. By comparison, 110 applicants have withdrawn their applications during the judicial process.
