SUMMARY:WEB 3155 Challenging Civil Penalties
DESCRIPTION:Book tickets here \nAn overview of civil penalties including what measures can be taken to potentially challenge decisions and the legal process of appeals. \n\n\n\n\nWith a surge in the number of civil penalties being issued for illegal working\, as well as the maximum penalty now being £60\,000 per worker\, and with the planned extension of the right to work scheme to contractors and the GIG economy\, immigration practitioners might expect clients to encounter civil penalties more often. In response to the changing regulatory environment\, this course will seek to provide: \n· an overview of the law behind civil penalties \n· who the proposed right to work regime might cover \n· tips on engaging with the Home Office to potentially challenge civil penalties \n· the deadlines and timings to respond and challenge a civil penalty \n· what potential grounds there might be to challenge a civil penalty \n· a summary of the appeals process \n· litigation risks \npractical tips and case study examples \n\n\n\n\nTutors: Allan Briddock\, One Pump Court and Robert Houchill\, Kingsley Napley \nAllan Briddock is a barrister at One Pump Court and has been instructed on dozens of civil penalty cases in the past decade. He has vast practical experience which is invaluable in defending civil penalties and has trained several business immigration firms on how to challenge civil penalties. \nRobert Houchill has extensive experience of assisting individuals and organisations with their UK immigration and nationality matters. Robert’s experience covers all kinds of immigration and nationality applications\, but with a particular emphasis on corporate immigration matters\, and helping high net worth individuals. \nRobert often helps organisations with sponsor licence applications and advises on immigration compliance issues.
