Cautioning foreign nationals for document offences
The Ministry of Justice, the United Kingdom Border Agency, and the police and Crown Prosecution Services, are piloting the use of simple cautions as an alternative to prosecution for foreign national offenders who have no legal basis to stay in the UK, commit specified document offences and agree to be removed form the UK.
The pilot started at Heathrow and Stansted Airports on 6 December 2010, and then widened to include the East Midlands in January 2011. This practice note provides information for criminal defence and immigration solicitors who work in the regions covered by the scheme.
