Duncan Lewis, Reported Case Solicitors, B, R (on the application of) v The Secretary of State for the Home Department [2016] EWHC 786 (Admin)

In the High Court of Justice - Queen's Bench Division - Administrative Court

This judicial review raises issues about the definition of human trafficking and its application to the claimant; the relationship between the Dublin Regulation for the return of asylum seekers within the EU on the one hand and international human trafficking instruments, Article 4 of the European Convention on Human Rights ("ECHR") and the Secretary of State's policies on the other; and whether the claimant and her child ought to be returned to Italy in light of conditions there, an assurance by the Italian authorities about how families will be treated on return, and a pending appeal on returns to Italy under the Dublin Regulation.
