Join the leading Immigration and Public Law teams of Garden Court Chambers for our joint all-day conference on the Nationality and Borders Bill.
This Bill overhauls all areas of immigration, nationality and asylum law. The UNHCR has stated they believe this Bill will 'penalise most refugees seeking asylum in the country, creating an asylum model that undermines established international refugee protection rules and practices'. This timely conference will coincide with the Bill's anticipated passage through the final stage of the Parliamentary process.
Book your place now for expert advice and training on all aspects of the legislation, as well as insights on strategic challenges from our leading legal experts.
Our barristers and speakers will examine:
• Changes to acquisition and deprivation of British citizenship
• Differential treatment of asylum seekers
• Inadmissibility of asylum claims: on nationality and third country grounds
• Priority removal notices, ouster of onward appeals, and penalties for late disclosure of evidence
• Restriction of appeal rights
• Interpretation of Refugee Convention provisions
• Criminal penalties for arrival
• Removal and bail
• Modern slavery and trafficking law
• Age assessments
This event is essential for immigration and public law practitioners, as well as those in the NGO and Migrant Support sectors. Further details to follow on speakers and programme.
