3.1 The Illegal Migration Act
Note: The Government introduced a regulation which applies from 24 July 2024, which puts the Illegal Migration Act on hold indefinitely. This means it will not apply at all.
KIND UK still strongly recommends that the Illegal Migration Act is repealed in its entirety. Without repeal, it is possible that the Government (or a future Government) could in future change its approach and apply part or all of the Illegal Migration Act.
