The Government is committed to the continued strength of the UK Islamic Finance sector, both as an important part of the UK\u2019s overall financial ecosystem and as an instrument of financial inclusion.<\/p>

The alternative finance tax rules aim to provide a level playing field for tax purposes across alternative and conventional financing arrangements.<\/p>

On 16 January 2024, HM Treasury published a consultation proposing changes to the Capital Gains Tax (CGT) rules that apply to alternative finance arrangements. The proposed changes seek to amend those rules so that where property is used as collateral for the purposes of raising finance, the CGT outcome is the same whether alternative finance or conventional finance is used. The consultation also asked whether there are any implications for capital allowances. The consultation closed on 9 April 2024 and the Government is considering responses.

Wherever possible, the Department will lay Independent Chief Inspector of Borders and Immigration (ICIBI) reports before Parliament within 8 weeks of receipt, or as soon as possible thereafter.<\/p>

It is important that the Department and Ministers give full consideration to the serious recommendations made in ICIBI reports. In some circumstances, this will take longer than 8 weeks due to the complexity or importance of the recommendations.<\/p>

In order to provide full transparency, reports will only be laid in Parliament when both Houses are sitting.

As set out in the Statement of Intent published on 21 June, eligible non-EU family members granted status under the EU Settlement Scheme will be issued with a status in a digital form. In addition, they will also be issued with a biometric residence card, where they do not already hold a biometric residence card issued under the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2016.<\/p>

A biometric residence card, together with a valid passport, will enable non-EU family members to travel to and from the UK.<\/p>

Until the end of the planned implementation period, EU citizens and their family members living in the UK, will continue to have the same rights and status, and are subject to the same residence and travel requirements as under EU law.<\/p>

Calais leave is a bespoke form of leave, introduced specifically for those children transferred to the UK between 17 October 2016 and 13 July 2017 as part of the Calais camp clearance to reunite with family and who did not qualify for leave to remain in the UK under existing Immigration Rules. It was created in recognition of the specific circumstances that surrounded the clearance of the camp and the transfer of children to the UK.<\/p>

In agreement with the French Government, the UK took unprecedented action to remove children from a dangerous situation to reunite them with their family in the UK. A total of 549 children were brought to the UK to join family members as part of this process. Granting leave to those transferred from Calais is in keeping with our ongoing commitment to those individuals.<\/p>

The Dublin Regulation determines the Member State responsible for assessing an asylum claim and does not confer any right to remain in the UK. An unaccompanied child who is transferred to the UK to reunite with family here under the Dublin Regulation will have their asylum claim considered in line with our published policy and guidance.
