LD (Algeria) v Secretary of State for the Home Department: CA 1 Jul 2004

The claimant arrived in England on a six month pass. He then applied for asylum, but his claim was rejected. He later resisted an attempt to remove him on human rights grounds. The court considered the guidance from the Immigration Appeal Tribunal on appeals which were entirely based upon human rights claims after completion of a previous determination.
Held: The guidance was correct. The IAT was a specialist tribunal and was entitled to give such guidance to the entire body of practitioners.
