MY TELNO 2357: CHANGES IN THE IMMIGRATION RULES: CASE OF MR AU- YEUNG

I HOPE YOU CAN LOOK INTO THIS URGENTLY. IT IS JUST THE SORT OF THING EVERYBODY HERE FEARED. WE HAVE USED MINISTERIAL STATEMENTS TO TRY TO CALM THESE FEARS. THIS CASE WILL DO THE OPPOSITE.

2. IF THERE IS SOMETHING EXCEPTIONAL ABOUT THIS CASE WHICH MAKES THE REMOVAL OF SETTLED STATUS JUSTIFIED, THEN THE SOONER WE CAN MAKE THIS KNOWN THE BETTER. IF IT IS SIMPLY AN IMMIGRATION OFFICER USING THE NEW RULES TOO ZEALOUSLY, AND NOT HAVING TAKEN ACCOUNT OF THE INSTRUCTIONS SENT ROUND TO THE CONTRARY, THEN THE SOONER IT CAN BE SORTED OUT AND AU-YEUNG'S ORIGINAL STATUS RESTORED, THE BETTER.
