[2023] UKUT 00164 (IAC)

The SSHD has appealed against a decision of the First-tier Tribunal (‘FTT’) dated 5 December 2022, allowing TC’s appeal on all grounds. In this decision we refer to the parties as they were before the FTT, i.e., TC as the appellant and the SSHD as the respondent.

We have maintained the anonymity order granted by the FTT because the appellant continues to rely upon his international protection claim. The importance of facilitating the discharge of the obligations of the United Kingdom (‘UK’) under the Refugee Convention outweighs the principle of open justice.
