Motion text
That this House supports the Omondi family and calls on the Home Office to overturn its rejection of the visa application for 14-year-old Anneceline Omondi, daughter of Lance Corporal Denis Omondi, a serving soldier for the Royal Regiment of Scotland, 3 Scots, and her application for entry clearance; further rejects the Home Office’s application of unachievable family commitments required for serving soldiers’, as in this case; thanks Lance Corporal Omondi for his long-running and continued service to the British Army; and requests that greater flexibility is allowed, given the sacrifices made by service personnel and their families, when considering immigration applications from members of these communities.
