Only this morning I was making extensive use of the websites of both the First Tier and Upper Tribunal Immigration and Asylum Chambers. I’ve returned to chambers only to find that they have now seemingly vanished into thin air, with nothing but a redirect to a new looking Ministry of Justice website. I HOPE that this is because the IAC sites are temporarily down but suspect not. The new MOJ site has a very limited amount of the information of the old sites. Just enough to make one suspect that it serves as a replacement…
Anyone with any news? Can anyone find the practice directions or the case law sections?
UPDATE: the reported case law can be found here and a few basic bits and bobs here. Everything else remains MIA. Looks like the change is permanent. Hopefully at least some of the critical information like practice directions will reappear at some point soon somehow.

How bizzare… It was only yesterday that I found out that they changed their fax and telephone number…now their website?… what next… the immigration system maybe[!]
So what is new telephone and fax number..They recently introduced number 03001231711 and see old number is back and this disappear…sometime I really wonder who make these kind of decisions…One more thing even common people have their web sites and this organization can not afford to run a simple web site…what on earth would be a cost to run a web site…This is a disgrace……..

This may help –

Everything now appears to be archived on the National Archives website: http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20110207135458/http://www.tribunals.gov.uk/ImmigrationAsylum/RulesLegislation.htm
I think I’ve found them, but for some reason they’ve been archived away from the new website (as have the old Tier 2 codes of practice) rather than kept as existing, current rules, easily available to users.

I was using the daily court lists for a dissertation on the fast track – very annoying that it has just suddenly disappeared!
Don’t know if anyone else has seen but the practice directions and rules are here on a current non-archived page: http://www.tribunals.gov.uk/Tribunals/Rules/rules.htm#pdspt
