Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules amend the Civil Procedure Rules 1998 by inserting a new Section II of Part 54, containing rules about applications to the High Court under section 101(2) of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. That section provides that a party to an application to the Immigration Appeal Tribunal for permission to appeal against an adjudicator’s determination may apply to the High Court for a review of the Tribunal’s decision on the ground that the Tribunal made an error of law.
The title of Part 54 is changed to “Judicial Review and Statutory Review” and consequential amendments are made to the existing rules in Part 54.
