Home Secretary James Cleverly has signed a fresh treaty with Rwanda to help get Rishi Sunak’s thwarted asylum deal off the ground.
He traveled to Kigali, Rwanda, to sign the agreement on Tuesday 5 December, in a bid to make the deal legally watertight after the Supreme Court ruled it unlawful in November.
Domestic legislation is also planned so Parliament can state that Rwanda is a safe destination for asylum seekers arriving in Britain.
Details on what the final treaty contains are unconfirmed.
