RECOMMENDATIONS
This research has exposed the very severe shortage of immigration and asylum legal advice in many parts of the UK, even for the limited range of matters which remains in scope in England and Wales.
The shortage threatens to frustrate access to justice triggered by both the Widening Dispersal and National Transfer Schemes which aim to ensure that people seeking sanctuary are accommodated more evenly through all parts of the UK.
