Decision & Reasons Issued:
On the 03 July 2024
Before
UPPER TRIBUNAL JUDGE MACLEMAN
Between
M F
Appellant
and
THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT
Respondent
Decided without a Hearing under rule 34 at Field House on 28 June 2024
DECISION AND REASONS
1. FtT Judge Dineen dismissed the appellant's asylum appeal on an adverse view of credibility, based on delay in making the claim. On 28 November 2023FtT Judge Lodato granted permission to appeal to the UT, on the view that it was "arguably difficult to understand" why delay was held against the appellant "to such a decisive degree". The SSHD responded on 3 January 2024, conceding that the credibility assessment was inadequate. On 22 March 2024 the UT issued directions with a view to the following disposal. Neither party has responded within the time indicated.
2. The decision of the FtT is set aside. It stands only as a record of what was said at the hearing. The case is remitted for fresh hearing before another Judge.
