MM (and others) v SSHD [2017] UKSC 10

22.02.2017

This case was a challenge to the minimum income requirements contained within the immigration rules and a challenge to the approach to Article 8 post 9th July 2012 immigration rules. Although the rules were upheld, the court held that they were in breach of the SSHD’s s. 55 duty and the guidance unlawfully failed to have regard to the best interests of the child. Victoria was instructed by the OCC and JCWI as joint interveners.
