  The majority of MPs voted to significantly restrict the circumstances in which an immigration decision may be appealed to the relevant Tribunal. 
  
  MPs were considering the Immigration Bill[1]. The amendment rejected in this vote was:
  
  :Amendment 1, page 8, line 19, leave out leave clause 11.
  
  Clause 11 which remained in the Bill following this vote:
  
  * Significantly restricted the circumstances in which an immigration decision may be appealed to the relevant Tribunal. The clause replaced  [http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2002/41/section/82section 82 in Part 5 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002] which provided for a right of appeal to a tribunal in relation to a broad list of immigration decisions with a much more restricted set of circumstances.
  * Introduced an "administrative review" procedure for use when there is no right of appeal.  
  * Provided a right of appeal for The Secretary of State's refusal of a "protection claim"; where the refusal is claimed to breach the Refugee Convention or a grant of humanitarian protection.
  * Prevented appellants from raising new grounds before the Tribunal before the Secretary of State has had a chance to consider them.
