Action needed to stop NI becoming asylum seeker magnet – DUP

“It’s always been known that the Illegal Migration Bill seeks to displace the workings of the Human Rights Act in Great Britain for the purposes of the deportation of illegal immigrants to Rwanda,” former Attorney General Dominic Grieve told Good Morning Ulster.

“In Northern Ireland the situation is different because as a result of the Good Friday Agreement, essentially the Human Rights Act is entrenched.”

A challenge to the Illegal Migration Act was brought by the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission and a 16-year-old asylum seeker from Iran who is residing in Northern Ireland over “significant concerns” about the impact of the act.

The judge found, external that several elements of the act do cause a “significant” diminution of the rights enjoyed by asylum seekers residing in Northern Ireland under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement.

Mr Grieve said Monday’s ruling could act as an impediment to carrying out the Rwanda scheme as asylum seekers resident in Northern Ireland cannot be sent to the African country.
