Clause 10 - Unification of appeal system
Asylum and Immigration (Treatment of Claimants, etc.) Bill
11:15 am
Mr Mark Oaten (Winchester, Liberal Democrat)
I thought that the Minister might say that, and that is why I am concerned. I should have thought that the point at which the tribunal might recognise that the case was proving difficult, and that it needed to take up the option of an oral hearing, would be at that hearing. However, that would be the very point at which that option suddenly would be precluded.
