Supreme Court judgement on failed asylum seekers
Sun, Aug 01, 2010
On July 28, the Supreme Court ruled that Article 11 of the EU Reception Conditions Directive should apply in some circumstances to failed asylum seekers who have exhausted their appeal rights. Specifically, this means that failed asylum seekers who have made further submissions asserting they have a fresh claim for asylum which have been outstanding for 12 months or more will now be entitled to apply for permission to work.
