Trends in the numbers of asylum applicants
in Britain 1997-00 are examined,
together with changes in the law and in
the treatment of refugees in the U.K. The
system is designed to deter claimants,
penalise anyone assisting illegal entry
and aims to expedite removal. New
regulations control the location of asylum
seekers in the country, pending determination of their status. Differential
treatment of various nationalities indicates
systemic discrimination against certain
groups. |
