The Members Resources and Legislation database
The legislation section contains links to most statutes and statutory instruments
relevant to immigration law. Some of these will gradually be 'imported' into
the EIN site itself so that they will become searchable documents from the EIN
search menu. This is particularly true of earlier acts that may not have electronic
copies available elsewhere e.g. the 1971 Immigration Act and the 1981 Nationality
Act, which have already been imported. The section also has its own search engine,
as with other sections of the site. The members resources section is a set of original material and Internet links,
arranged by specific categories, and also alphabetically and according to countries.
As noted there is a growing body of original material within this section of
the EIN site. Examples of useful material include the IAA Fact Sheets on the
ECHR (under heading of Council of Europe), the UNHCR updates on Strasburg jurisprudence
and the BID (Bail for Immigration Detainees) report on 'Arbitrary Detention'.
The section also has its own search engine, as with other sections of the site. TIP: sometimes as all the materials are displayed on one page in the resources
section it is just as easy to use your browser's 'find' button (e.g. the aforementioned
BID report can be found by pressing the CTRL+F keys and typing 'BID' into the
search box). As with the case law and country sections, the legislation and members resources
will be indexed if relevant, and denoted as key resources. (and you can search
for key resources alone in the relevant search engines). However, you cannot
at present add information into your bundle by simply clicking on a button (it
is possible to copy materials into the bundle, but this is an advanced action
which is covered in the EIN training sessions). Site information | FAQs | Copyright info | Site Help | Site Map |
