Regina v Immigration Appeal Tribunal, Ex Parte Saleem: QBD 11 Nov 1999

The rule which deemed an appellant to have received notice of the determination of his appeal two days after it was posted, irrespective of whether it in fact was received by him was ultra vires and unlawful. The effect of such a rule was draconian and could not be justified by reference to the Act under which the rules were made.
