Welcome to episode 80 of the Free Movement immigration update podcast. This month we start with the EU Settlement Scheme before turning to a couple of cases at the intersection of immigration law and family law. With the slow down in the court system, there wasn’t a whole lot of case law this month, so we take a detour via domestic abuse and sponsor licensing before getting back to the courts with a few cases on procedure and compensation for delay. To round off, there’s a couple of positive developments on legal aid and leave to remain for people falsely accused of cheating on their English test.

There are now over 100 CPD hours of training materials available to members. You can find all the available courses here. With the end of the CPD year approaching, it’s worth mentioning we have three new training courses already available — on Tier 2 visas, international surrogacy cases and best practice in immigration case working — and two more incoming on advising employers and on lawyer ethics. As with blog posts, we’re widening the pool of training courses authors and these are by Karma Hickman of Bishop & Sewell, Jo Hunt of Lewis Silkin, Amie Higgins of the Anti-Trafficking and Labour Exploitation Unit and Chris Cole, formerly of Parker Rhodes Hickmotts.
