- Court
- High Court
The Business Immigration Specialist lawfully exercised discretionary power; he considered the submitted material including adviser responses and Tribunal findings, was entitled to discount business experience acquired unlawfully, reasonably concluded the principal lacked relevant property development experience and that the applicants' history of unlawful residence justified scepticism about compliance with visa conditions; the matters relied on by applicants were not mandatory considerations and would not have altered the outcome; the judicial review is dismissed.
