The Dublin Regulation meant that anyone who sets foot in another EU country first can be returned to that country, this law no longer stands.

The relevant problem with Brexit is that in exiting the European Union the UK left what is arguably one of the most popular immigration policies among the British public, the Dublin III Regulation.

This is an EU agreement among member states that if anyone sets foot in another EU country first then that person can be returned to that country.

Under the Dublin Regulation, anyone found leaving French shores to come to England could be returned as per this agreement.

The issue now is that leaving the European Union has meant leaving the Dublin Regulation.

The government was repeatedly asked by Labour during the Brexit negotiations about whether the Dublin Regulation membership would be part of any deal and, in essence, the government either forgot or did not take it seriously in leaving any mention of it out of the final deal – and with nothing to replace it.

This matters because this regulatory change will have been noticed.

It means since the prime minister’s “oven ready deal” was accepted with no provision to deal with Dublin Regulation cases anyone travelling post-Brexit to Britain would arrive without the agreement they could be returned somewhere else in the EU.

So, despite the tough-sounding rhetoric of processing individuals abroad, which other countries have rejected or pushed back on grounds that it is unlawful, the government has no grip on how this situation came into being in the first place.

It was a clear failure of Brexit talks to forget the inclusion of the Dublin Regulation or some other alternative in its place, just as it is a failure of caseload management that the Home Office is understaffed and under-resourced.
