§ Mr. Roseasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what instruction he has given to Home Office adjudicators concerning the right of audience of representatives of the immigration counselling centre run by Mr. Reuben Davis; and what statement he has made to the latter concerning right of audience.
§ Mr. Alexander W. LyonThere has been no Home Office instruction or intervention in this matter. The immigration appellate authorities are independent of the Home Office, and under the Immigration Appeals (Procedure) Rules 1972 it is exclusively for them to decide in any individual case whether to grant Mr. Davis leave to represent an appellant.
