The Case

Immigration Leave to enter. In a case where the claimant had been granted entry clearance to the United Kingdom on appeal but where the entry clearance officer (ECO) had subsequently requested up-to-date information, pursuant to Ch27.11(ii) of the Diplomatic Service Procedures, Entry Clearance, the ECO had done no more than fulfil what was reasonably expected under established rules. There was nothing irrational or unlawful in that request.
