Minister Launches
Consultation on
Simplifying Immigration Law
12 June 2007
Liam Byrne, Minister
for Immigration, Citizenship, and Nationality, has launched a consultation paper on simplifying immigration and
citizenship law. The aim of this initial consultation paper is to seek a range
of views to inform a fundamental overhaul of the legal framework within which
the Border and Immigration Agency operates.
Over recent
months the
Border and Immigration
Agency has outlined plans to reform the immigration system. The object of
this paper is to begin the process of simplifying the body of different
immigration laws built up over the last few decades.
The new legal
framework will be important to the transformation of the Border and Immigration
Agency, and to the achievement of its strategic objectives.
The
consultation paper is available on the Border and Immigration Agency’s
website.
