Charities Prepare Legal Challenges Against Rwanda Removals as Law Nears Passing

A new law in the UK is expected to pass this week, declaring Rwanda a safe country for asylum seekers, allowing the first flights to take off and transfer people there.
Charities, including Care4Calais, which had previously blocked such flights, plan to launch legal challenges as soon as possible to prevent the removals.

The charities have recruited volunteers to identify individuals who may be affected by the law.

Ministers aim to strike similar removal deals with other countries.

The text discusses the British government's plan to send some asylum seekers to Rwanda for processing, despite legal challenges.

The government is pushing to implement this scheme before the general election, as part of their efforts to prevent small boats from crossing the English Channel.

The legislation declares Rwanda a safe country, allowing for the removal of asylum seekers there.

The plan, introduced in April 2022, has faced numerous legal obstacles, but the government is optimistic about its chances of success.

Legal support is being offered to asylum seekers to keep them in the UK.

No asylum seekers have been sent to Rwanda under this scheme yet.

Parliament has been debating the government's bill regarding the removal of migrants to Rwanda, with the Lords making changes through a process called ping-pong.

This process is expected to end by Thursday.

Once concluded, the Home Office can inform those to be removed, prompting charities to initiate legal challenges which could delay removals.

The legislation itself may also be challenged in court.

Political debate is certain to continue alongside the legal battles.
