12:19 pm
plan was legal deportations were suspended in june after last minute challenge for the court also said the cases of ice asylum seekers. you should be deported must now be reconsidered. harry faucet has the details from london. i gathered london's high court refugee campaigners awaiting the ruling on legal challenges to the british governments. stated, aim to send the vast majority of people seeking asylum in the u. k. automatically to re wonder, to have the claims processed and if successful to be settled there. for the most part the judges found in favor of the government. though just as louis writing, we have concluded that it is lawful for the government to make arrangements for relocating asylum seekers to her wonder and for their asylum claims to be determined in rwanda rather than the u. k. however, the home secretary must consider properly the circumstances of each individual claimant. the court ruled that had not been done in the case of 8 individual asylum seekers whose deportation, her wonder was cooled off in june. out of the european court of human rights
