High Court Judgment: Children born in the UK to European Union nationals and the meaning of ‘settled’ relating to British citizenship law

Jan 20, 2023

On Friday 20 January 2023, the High Court handed down its judgment on the meaning of settled in the British Nationality Act 1981. This is important for the citizenship rights of children born in the UK since 1 January 1983 when the Act did away with automatic citizenship merely by birth in the UK. The judgment has particular importance for children of parents who were exercising European Free Movement Rights.
