High Court refuses judicial review of the decision refusing an Ethiopian national refugee status, on the grounds that the International Protection Appeals Tribunal considered all of the relevant material as part of its overall consideration of the credibility of the claim.
Judicial review – asylum and immigration – substantive decision - Ethiopian national challenging the decision of the Refugee Appeals Tribunal (now the International Protection Appeals Tribunal) refusing him refugee status – failed to take into account relevant information – role of the Court in judicial review - claim for refugee status - decision under challenge – granted leave on a single ground – letter – country of origin information - no suggestion in the IPAT decision that the tribunal chose to prefer the contents of a conflicting report over supportive reports – nothing in the IPAT decision that is directly inconsistent with the contents of the relevant extract from The Human Rights Watch report - tribunal considered all of the relevant material as part of its overall consideration of the credibility of the claim - attempt to pursue other grounds of challenge without leave - no jurisdiction to consider either of the grounds upon which the Ethiopian sought, but was not granted, leave to seek judicial review – judicial review refused.
