UK to simplify immigration rules
The UK immigration rules have become very complicated, the time has come to simplify!..link
The UK to simplify immigration rules
The UK presently has over 1100 pages of regulations relating to policy and practice of regulating the entry and stay of people in the UK.
The Law Commission will review the existing policy and recommend changes, amongst the concerns are that some of the rules overlap which leads to delays, confusion and miss-interpretation.
The review is not designed to change the rules just make it easier to follow them which, it is hoped, will enable the home office to make quicker decisions.
Since the introduction of the rules in a 40-page document in 1973, there have been thousands of changes swelling the document to 1100 pages, over the past 10 years the document averaged almost 2 amendments per day!
Critics say that the system is untenable, changes must be a priority and the changes should include:
- Use of clearer language
- Standardisation of practices
- Limitations on amendments
- Increased use of IT
