(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Immigration (Leave to Enter and Remain) Order 2000 (“the 2000 Order”). The principal amendment is made by article 4, which provides that an entry clearance shall not have effect as leave to enter where that entry clearance is endorsed on a travel document issued pursuant to Article 28 of the Convention relating to the Status of Refugees done at Geneva on 28th July 1951 and its Protocol and where that travel document was not issued by the United Kingdom Government. This will be the case even if the entry clearance otherwise satisfies the requirements of article 3 of the 2000 Order. The exception to this provision is where an entry clearance was endorsed on such a travel document before 27th February 2004 (article 4).
