Reform has proposed suspending the asylum system for an entire parliamentary term if it forms a government.
Under the proposal, all asylum applications would be rejected and existing claims would be voided. People who had made claims would then be marked for deportation.
The policy would therefore apply both to new applications and to cases already in the system. The supplied details do not set out how the proposal would be implemented or provide further information about its timetable beyond the length of a parliamentary term.
The proposal represents a fundamental change to the handling of asylum claims, but no additional details or response are provided in the available material.
