UTIAC It is plain from the architecture of the Rules as regards partners that EX.1 is ‘parasitic’ on the relevant Rule within Appendix FM that otherwise grants leave to remain. If EX.1 was intended to be a free- standing element some mechanism of identification would have been used. The structure of the Rules as presently drafted requires it to be a component part of the leave granting Rule. This is now made plain by the respondent’s guidance dated October 2013.
