News on refugee status for the UK ....

Relatives of refugees are not legally refugees after all

The Court of Appeal has held that the UN Refugee Convention should not be interpreted to include an implied type of derivative refugee status for the family members of refugees. As a result, anyone who was granted refugee status under UK law as the family member of a recognised refugee does not benefit from the protections in the Refugee Convention against withdrawal of refugee status.
