"Having considered the application with both representatives and having considered the alternatives, I was reluctant to grant the adjournment particularly since it was difficult to put any timescale on investigations which might have to be conducted inSri Lanka. In view of the fact that the Appellant had been granted leave to remain for the next two years, was ample time for investigations to be carried out without the appeal remaining listed. In any event, if removal directions were set in December 2004, the Appellant would then have a fresh right of appeal on human rights grounds. It was agreed with the representatives that, in all the circumstances, there was little point in adjourning the appeal when there was no indication as to when it would be ready for hearing. It was felt preferable for the Appellant to have ample time to prepare a fresh appeal when all evidence was available, whether before or at the same time as any human rights appeal might arise. In the circumstances, both representatives agreed that I should treat the appeal as abandoned, and I agreed that this was an appropriate course.
Decision. Appeal treated as abandoned".
