- High Court
The applicant deliberately omitted relevant information about his US convictions and residence; that wilful concealment was a substantial cause of obtaining residency and ultimately citizenship; reliance on adviser advice does not negate wilfulness; therefore the s17(2) notice was supported by sufficient grounds, the s19(2) declaration is refused and the judicial review discloses no error or Wednesbury unreasonableness.
