Proceeding contribution from Lord Lloyd of Berwick (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL].
Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Bill [HL]
My Lords, as the noble Lord has just explained, this amendment goes some way to meeting the concerns held by Lord Kingsland and I on Report. It is extremely complicated, but the problem was the omission of condition 4 as a condition which had to be met before judicial review cases could be transferred from the High Court to the new tribunal. Now, new condition 5 has been inserted in much less strict terms than the old condition 4. As I understand it—I hope I am right—if condition 5 is satisfied, judicial review applications must be transferred, but if it is not, then it is up to the discretion of the High Court judges whether an application is transferred. I hope that the Minister might be able to confirm that my understanding is correct.
