Asylum Aid has published a new briefing on the introduction of the Statelessness Determination Procedure.

Asylum Aid says that the procedure was introduced by changes to the immigration rules on April 6th and is a first for the UK.

Such a procedure was the keynote recommendation of the joint Asylum Aid/UNHCR report 'Mapping Statelessness in the United Kingdom' (2011).

The Asylum Aid briefing provides background to the problem of statelessness in the UK, along with information on how the new procedure works, who it is intended to help, and how to access further information and advice.
