- Draft legislation
This is a draft item of legislation. This draft has since been made as a UK Statutory Instrument: The Immigration (Leave to Enter and Remain) (Amendment) Order 2019 No. 298
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Immigration (Leave to Enter and Remain) Order 2000 (S.I. 2000/1161) (“the 2000 Order”).
Article 4 inserts a new article 8B into the 2000 Order. This enables a person who meets the description in the article to obtain leave to enter the United Kingdom as a visitor by passing through an automated gate with no authorisation by an immigration officer. Where such a person passes through an automated gate, the person will automatically be given leave to enter for six months (subject to the conditions set out in article 8B). Where such leave is given, no notice of leave is given to the person and the 2000 Order is amended to reflect this.
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
