Key legal question
Whether the appeal was admissible because the husband had a legal entitlement to a residence permit under family reunification rules and Article 8 ECHR.
Extracted holding
Yes; the case was admissible because a spouse of a person holding a settlement permit may have an entitlement under Art. 17(2) ANAG, and family life under Art. 8 ECHR can also support standing.
Extracted reasoning
The wife and child held settlement permits and the family relationship was actually maintained through visits, so an enforceable claim could be examined by administrative law appeal.
