- The Safe Haven law decriminalises child abandonment if the baby is passed into safe hands (Picture: Safe Haven Baby Boxes) Many are young, vulnerable or victims of sexual abuse, though the reasons vary and ‘there is never any shame’.

by the Home Secretary, the Rt Hon David Blunkett MP There is nothing more controversial, and yet more natural, than men and women from across the world seeking a better life for themselves and their families. Ease of communication and of transportation have transformed the time it takes to move across the globe. This ease of movement has broken dow...
This White Paper sets out the key challenges we face in developing our nationality,immigration and asylum policy and sets out in detail the measures we are taking to produce a coherent strategy. Migration is a consistent feature of human history. But in recent years, the changes associated with globalisation have led to greater complexity in patter...
4 The first challenge migration poses is to our concepts of national identity and citizenship. Migration has increased the diversity of advanced democracies, leading to changes in national culture and identity. Many of us already have overlapping identities based on our cultural and ethnic backgrounds. More than half of the countries of the world n...
15 Disentangling the many motives – from seeking better economic prospects to seeking protection – which people have for coming to the UK is not always easy. But we need to do more to ensure that clear, managed routes into the UK exist so that people do not use inappropriate routes to effect their entry. In particular, we must ensure that the asylu...
22 At the heart of our challenges lie those who will take advantage of global movements to traffic or smuggle migrants. Organised immigration crime is a growth industry, worth millions of pounds each year. It is, by its nature, an area where reliable information is scarce, but our research and intelligence on it have been improving. While some of i...
28 The challenge here is to allow those who qualify for entry to pass through the controls as quickly as possible, maximising the time spent on identifying those who try to enter clandestinely or by presenting forged or stolen documents. Increasingly we are looking at new methods of detecting and deterring. We must continue to develop in response t...
1.9 Globalisation is bringing rapid changes to the world in which we live. Over the last quarter of the century, a series of economic, technological and social changes have increased the interdependence and interconnectedness of the modern world. International trade and transnational movements in capital have grown exponentially as transport and tr...
3.7 There are a range of different ways to enter the UK from outside the EU. Some of these entry routes are economic – the prime example is the work permit scheme. Others are primarily for visiting, studying or holiday-making, family reunion or humanitarian protection. Some routes are temporary; some may lead to settlement. This reflects our approa...
4.15 The Government is determined that the UK should have a humanitarian asylum process which honours our obligations to those genuinely fleeing persecution while deterring those who have no right to asylum from travelling here. That is why we are: Preparing a resettlement programme to establish gateways for those most in need of protection to come...
4.50 The new arrangements for tighter contact management of asylum seekers must also be applied to existing applicants. Some are already subject to reporting requirements. Many others are still being supported from public funds, either by the National Asylum Support Service (NASS) or local authorities, but have not been required to report regularly...
4.78 The use of Prison Service accommodation to hold immigration detainees has been a matter of understandable concern and we have pursued a strategy to eliminate our reliance on this accommodation, subject to limited exceptions. Part of this strategy has centred on the opening of new Immigration Service Detention Centres. This has allowed us to wi...
4.81 We propose to extend the existing power of detainee escorts to search detained persons to allow their entry to private premises to conduct such searches. Searching people being taken into detention is necessary to ensure the safety and security of the detainees themselves as well as of those escorting them. Detainee escorts do not presently ha...
5.1 We have set out in previous chapters how the Government intends to allow controlled, orderly migration of people who can make a positive contribution to society. We have also set out how we are opening alternative, legal routes for those wishing to work in the UK. However, the Government is determined to prevent this system from being undermine...
5.2 The vast majority of people who arrive in the UK illegally are brought here by organised crime groups. This organised immigration crime includes both ‘people trafficking’, where someone is brought to the UK in order to be exploited, and ‘people smuggling’ where, at least to some extent, entry is facilitated with their consent. It is best seen a...
5.5 It is clear that people who are in this country illegally are vulnerable to exploitation both by the traffickers that use deception or intimidation to transport them and by a few unscrupulous employers or gangmasters who take advantage of their status by making them work in poor or dangerous conditions, often for unacceptably low wages. People ...
After the terrorist atrocities in the United States on 11 September, the issue of introducing an identity card scheme was raised by many people and attracted a considerable degree of media comment.At the time, the Government said that it was not planning to introduce an identity card scheme as part of its response to the events of 11 September, but...
5.40 Organised criminal groups do not respect national boundaries, and immigration crime is international. Effective action against it therefore requires close co-operation with other countries, particularly with our EU partners.The UK is fully signed up to work under EU funding programmes to help Member States, source and transit countries to tack...
An example of tackling trafficking between developing countries is a project by the International Programme on the Elimination of Child Labour (IPEC), partly funded by DfID, to combat the trafficking of children within the Mekong subregion. This has been expanded and now aims more broadly at reducing labour exploitation of women and children, throu...
6.17 The Government does not underestimate the enormity of the task of stemming the flow of people who enter the UK by concealing themselves in road and rail freight. The additional steps we must take to combat illegal migration were announced in Dover last September. We are investing heavily in new technology designed to detect persons concealed i...
6.18 We live in an increasingly fast-paced world where we must act swiftly and flexibly, not only to provide the best possible service to our genuine customers but also to counter the actions of unscrupulous dealers in organised trafficking in humans. These criminal gangs have come to know and, as a result, exploit our immigration procedures. We ar...

Jan 17, 2019 · Incorrect. The UN Refugee Convention does not make this requirement of refugees, and UK case law supports this interpretation. Refugees can legitimately make a claim for asylum in the UK after passing through other “safe” countries.
Nov 1, 2016 · Now, they are used throughout Europe, with the law amended to prevent women who use them being prosecuted for abandonment. However, there are no baby boxes in the UK.
