Immigration advice

This document expresses the concerns of the Asylum Support Partnership in response to the UKBA consultation on on the future regulation of immigration advice.

The Asylum Support Partnership believes that these proposals would impact upon the ASP’s capacity to support vulnerable asylum seekers and refugees and would undermine the efforts of the Partnership to promote high quality legal advice and services. The Partnership also opposes the proposal to extend the regulation charging regime to include currently exempt not-for-profit advice providers, including the ASP agencies and Refugee Community Organisations (RCOs).
