THE IMMIGRATION ACTS



Determined at Field House without a hearing

Decision & Reasons Promulgated

On 23 January 2018

On 24 January 2018

 

 

 

Before

 

UPPER TRIBUNAL JUDGE RINTOUL

 

 

Between

 

RAFIZ QURBAN ALI

(NO ANONYMITY ORDER MADE)

Appellant

and

 

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT

Respondent



DECISION AND REASONS

 

1.              On 8 January 2018 I gave the following directions:-

 

1. In the light of Khan v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2017] EWCA Civ 1755, the First-tier Tribunal granted permission to appeal on the basis that it was arguably wrong in law to have concluded that it did not have jurisdiction to hear the appeal.

 

2. The Upper Tribunal is minded to find an error of law, set aside the decision of the First-tier Tribunal and remit the case to the First-tier Tribunal.

 

3. A party who is opposed to this course is directed to inform the Tribunal in writing (giving reasons), not later than 7 days from the date this decision is sent by the Upper Tribunal. Following that period, the Upper Tribunal will issue its decision.

 

2.              There has been no response to these directions by either party. Accordingly, I am satisfied that neither party objects to the matter being determined without a hearing and has nothing further to say. I am satisfied that that the determination of the First-tier Tribunal did involve the making of an error of law for the reasons set out above, and must therefore be set aside. Given the nature of the error, I remit the appeal to the First-tier Tribunal for a fresh determination on all issues.

 

 

Summary of conclusions

 

1.                   The determination of the First-tier Tribunal did involve the making of an error of law and I set it aside.

 

2.                   I remit the decision to the First-tier Tribunal for a fresh decision on all issues

 

3.                   The appeal must not be before Designated Judge Shaerf

 

 

 

Signed Date: 23 January 2018
