Court of Appeal condemns marriage rules

The Court of Appeal in a test case, has condemned the marriage visa rules requiring applicants to be over 21 years of age, as being arbitrary and disruptive.

The rules were introduced to clamp down on forced marriage but instead have been criticised as far too stringent and have affected the plans of applicants between 18 and 21 years.

The Immigration Minister is considering an appeal to the Supreme Court.
