00:40The UK government has introduced a new immigration measure,
00:57Appendix UK slash European Applicant Transfer Scheme,
01:01as part of a pilot return agreement with France.

01:12The full version of this blog is available on our website, link mentioned in the description below.
01:20Let's begin with introduction of Appendix UK slash European Applicant Transfer Scheme.
01:27The newly added appendix outlines eligibility, documentation requirements and application procedures
01:34for a reciprocal transfer of migrants between France and the UK.
01:39Only adults and family units currently in France can apply.
01:49Next, we explore the purpose and scope of the UK-France return agreement.
01:54The Home Office, under Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, aims to deter small boat journeys by detaining individuals for transfer.
02:04For every person transferred to the UK, an equal number will be removed under the agreement.
02:12Moving on to the application process and eligibility.
02:17The process includes submitting an expression of interest during a limited window.
02:22Only applications from within France are accepted, and only those selected will proceed to entry clearance.
02:30Then, we examine the monitoring and timeline of the pilot scheme.
02:35This time-bound pilot will be jointly monitored by the UK and France,
02:40with adjustments made based on effectiveness and migrant behaviours.
02:44This scheme reflects a bold policy shift targeting irregular migration.
02:55By testing controlled reciprocal transfers, the UK aims to boost border security while addressing humanitarian concerns.
