Asylum and Undocumented Migrants: Deportation
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will take steps to prevent (a) repeat and (b) last-minute appeals from delaying the removal of (i) failed asylum seekers and (ii) illegal entrants.
Answered by Dame Angela Eagle
Any person, including an asylum seeker and or an illegal entrant, who does not have the right to remain in the United Kingdom and has already appealed a decision cannot appeal again against that decision unless they make further submissions which have not previously been considered and, taken together with the previously considered material, create a realistic prospect of success at appeal. Where this test is not met, the further submissions are rejected and this decision cannot be appealed.
