Asylum law: creeping criminalisation

A lunchtime seminar on the way in which criminal law is being brought into the asylum process


Frances Webber is a barrister specialising in immigration and asylum law who has worked closely with the Institute of Race Relations since 1969. She will be explaining the new ways in which criminal law is being used in the asylum process and arguing that this is a direct consequence of the EU’s adoption of a penal framework to prevent the arrival of would-be refugees in Europe and to aid the departure of ailed asylum seekers.

The seminar will be a discussion – not a debate – aimed at facilitating a genuine exchange of views and ideas between speakers and participants.
