DECISION AND REASONS

1.              This matter comes before us as a consequence of a previous Error of Law Decision and Reasons finding that the decision of First-tier Tribunal Judge Braybrook contained a material error of law and that her findings should be set aside.

2.              The Appellants request that their appeals be remitted to the First-tier Tribunal. The Secretary of State does not oppose that request. The Practice Statement dated 25 September 2012 of the Immigration and Asylum Chamber First-tier Tribunal and Upper Tribunal states as follows at paragraph 7.2:

'7.2 The Upper Tribunal is likely on each such occasion to proceed to remake the decision, instead of remitting the case to the First-tier Tribunal, unless the Upper Tribunal is satisfied that:-

(a) the effect of the error has been to deprive a party before the First-tier Tribunal of a fair hearing or other opportunity for that party's case to be put to and considered by the First-tier Tribunal; or

(b) the nature or extent of any judicial fact finding which is necessary in order for the decision in the appeal to be re-made is such that, having regard to the overriding objective in rule 2, it is appropriate to remit the case to the First-tier Tribunal.'

3.              Pursuant to the Practice Statement, we are satisfied that the nature and extent of judicial fact-finding in the re-making of this appeal is such that, having regard to the overriding objective in rule 2, it is appropriate to remit the appeals to the First-tier Tribunal.

4.              The appeals are hereby remitted to the First-tier Tribunal, to be heard by a judge of the First-tier Tribunal other than Judge Braybrook.
