Regina (Saad and Others) v Secretary of State for the Home Department: CA 19 Dec 2001

The grant by the Secretary of State of exceptional leave to remain in the UK, did not remove the right of an asylum seeker to appeal a rejection of his claim for asylum. The applicant had the right to have his status, and the UK’s compliance with international obligation determined.
Held: The granting of special leave was not full compliance by the UK with its treaty obligations. A grant of refugee status would confer significant additional rights.
