§ Mrs. Curtis-ThomasTo ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Department for Constitutional Affairs how the Government intend to deal with judicial review of decisions formerly made by the Immigration Appeals Tribunal. [150179]
§ Mr. LammyThe Government have introduced measures in the Asylum and Immigration (Treatment of Claimants, etc.) Bill to establish a new single tier Asylum and Immigration Tribunal. This will merge the two current tiers of appeal in asylum and immigration cases. The judicial determinations and decisions made by the new tribunal will be final and can only be challenged in the higher courts on the grounds that a tribunal member has acted in bad faith.
