Paragraph 30 of Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (c. 10) (“the Schedule”) describes the civil legal services that may be made available in relation to an individual’s rights to enter and remain in the United Kingdom under certain specified provisions. Paragraph 30(3) of Part 1 of the Schedule provides that such services do not include attendance at an immigration interview conducted on behalf of the Secretary of State with a view to reaching a decision on a claim, except where regulations provide otherwise.
Regulation 2 amends regulation 4 of the Civil Legal Aid (Immigration Interviews) (Exceptions) Regulations 2012 (S.I. 2012/2683), which make provision for exceptions to paragraph 30(3). It has the effect that civil legal services are to be available for an individual aged 18 or over at an immigration interview (other than a screening interview) where the individual is detained in one of the three specified immigration removal centres.
