HC Deb 02 April 2001 vol 366 c77W
Mr. Sanders

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement on the Isho judgment. [156519]

Mrs. Roche

I assume the hon. Member is referring to the judgment by the Court of Appeal last December in the case of Isiko. This was a welcome and important judgment, and represents a helpful clarification of the legal position. Consideration of those cases which had been held pending the outcome of this case has now been resumed.
