UK Immigration and Asylum Plans – Some Questions Answered by UNHCR

What in a nutshell are the UK’s proposed asylum changes?

They include: 

  • restricting access to asylum, including a two-tiered approach — for those coming through so-called safe and legal pathways versus irregular arrivals — as well as the ability to declare many applicants inadmissible and a possibility for “externalization” (processing claims in other safe countries);
  • the introduction of temporary protection status for those found inadmissible who cannot be removed; 
  • changes to asylum procedures and safeguards, including a “one-stop” appeals process, centralized age assessment, or higher standards of proof for claims and a stronger focus on removals; 
  • tightening the National Referral Mechanism for victims of trafficking; and 
  • a focus on law enforcement around smuggling and trafficking.
