What the court decided
The House of Lords affirmed the Januzi test for internal protection, holding that decision‑makers must decide whether it is reasonable to expect an asylum‑seeker to relocate or whether doing so would be unduly harsh, and that it is not necessary to show a breach of Article 3 of the ECHR, only that relocation would be unreasonable or would infringe comparable rights; it further held that the Court of Appeal erred in finding the Tribunal applied an incorrect test.
