RI (EC Law, Chen, Effect on Proportionality) Uganda: IAT 31 Aug 2005

IAT The case raises questions about the extent, if any, to which a non-EEA national with family ties to EEA nationals residing here can invoke their free movement rights in arguing that her own removal would be disproportionate in terms of Article 8. The ambit of the ECJ judgment in Chen, and of its manifestation at paragraph 257C of the Immigration Rules, is also considered, in the light of a contention that the requirement of self-sufficiency is not absolute. The case is being reported for these reasons.
