The AIT hears and decides appeals against decisions made by the Home Office in matters of asylum, immigration and nationality. The Asylum and Immigration Tribunal was abolished by Article 2 of the Transfer of Functions of the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal Order 2010, and its functions were transferred to the First-tier Tribunal and the Upper Tribunal Immigration and Asylum Chamber (UTIAC), created under Part 1 of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007, effective 15 February 2010. Website: www.ait.gov.uk/
