1

This section applies where—

a

a competent authority has previously made a positive reasonable grounds decision in relation to a person (the “first RG decision”), and

b

a further positive reasonable grounds decision is made in relation to the person, in a case where the reasonable grounds for believing that the person is a victim of slavery or human trafficking arise from things done wholly before the first RG decision was made (the “further RG decision”).

2

If the competent authority considers it appropriate in the circumstances of a particular case, the authority may determine that the person may not be removed from, or required to leave, the United Kingdom during the period—

a

beginning with the day on which the further RG decision is made, and

b

ending with whichever of the following is the later—

i

the day on which the conclusive grounds decision is made in relation to the further RG decision;

ii

the end of the period of 30 days beginning with the day mentioned in paragraph (a).

This is subject to section 63(2).
