(This note is not part of the Order)
Section 5(1) of the Immigration Act 1988 provides that a person who was last given leave to enter the United Kingdom less than seven years before the date of the decision to make a deportation order against him by virtue of section 3(5)(a) of the Immigration Act 1971 (breach of limited leave) or by virtue of section 3(5)(c) of that Act (as belonging to the family of a person who is or has been ordered to be deported by virtue of section 3(5)(a)), shall not be entitled to appeal under section 15 of the 1971 Act except on the ground that on the facts of his case there is in law no power to make the deportation order for the reasons stated in the notice of the decision.
However, the restriction on the right of appeal does not apply to a person who is exempt by virtue of an order made under section 5(2). This Order provides that a person is exempt if he would have last been given leave to enter seven years or more before the date of the decision to deport but for his having obtained a subsequent leave after an absence from the United Kingdom within the period limited for the duration of the earlier leave. The Order also provides that a person is exempt if his limited leave has been curtailed by the Secretary of State under section 7 of the Asylum and Immigration Appeals Act 1993.
