Welcome to the September 2014 edition of the Free Movement immigration update podcast. As normal, the material for the podcast is drawn from blog posts on Free Movement.

I start this month by going through some case law and country updates, move on to some legislative updates, discuss a couple of aspects of Surinder Singh, the EU case on British citizens making use of EU free movement rules, and then finish with a few different items on Home Office conduct and the Upper Tribunal.

  1. Listening to the podcast now – what a soothing voice you have! Around the 5:30 mark you mention enhanced protection for EU nationals after 10 years, which isnt afforded to their non-EEA family members. However presumably not too many non-EEA family members in the UK under EEA regs will be impacted by this, because by then they are likely to be British citizens. Ditto EU nationals actually. However for those who dont naturalise and are in prison, surely a “fair” way would be to extend the 10 years by the length of time spent in prison? Presumably also then reflective of severity of crime and therefore less subjective in determining integration with or without adjustment for prison. Too simplistic though perhaps!
