An open access version can be found in:Abstract
This piece examines the impact of United Kingdom and European law on the asylum-seeking family, with particular reference to the provision of support. It considers the meaning of terms such as ‘the family’ or ‘the family unit’ in the asylum-specific context, and explores the extent to which our understanding of ‘the family’ is different when considering asylum seekers. The paper focuses on the inherent tension between family law and asylum law in relation to treatment of those who fail to achieve refugee status and who are required to leave these shores.
