The Case

Immigration Workers. Queen's Bench Division, Administrative Court: It was held, in the instant judicial review claim, that the Secretary of State had not erred in deciding to revoke the work permit of an employee of the claimant. The relevant guidance had been complied with. Further, it was the claimant's inaction, in not seeking to take steps to bring his employee's employment back into line with the criteria for which the permit had originally been granted, which was fatal to the claim.
