Abdel Karim Taghouti

Question
(2) for what reasons the decision of Asylum and Immigration Tribunal determined on 14 September 2005 in respect of Mr. Abdel Karim Taghouti, Appeal No. OA/00652/2005, has not yet been sent by the Government to the UK embassy in Tunis; when it will be sent; when a spouse's visa will be issued; and if he will make a statement.
Answer

The visa section at our embassy in Tunis received Mr. Taghouti's appeal determination from the Home Office on 31 October 2005. There was a public holiday between 3–7 November 2005, which prevented the embassy from contacting Mr. Taghouti. However, he approached the visa section on 8 November 2005 with his passport and was issued with his spouse visa.
