GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands – Consequent on the ruling of the Grand Court in the Hutchinson-Green case in which issues were raised about the Permanent Residency points system, the Cabinet has approved revised regulations, which address the concerns by allowing for a resumption of processing of applications by the Board and the Chief Immigration Officer.

Pending appeals will also need to be dealt with by the Immigration Appeals Tribunal.

“We undertook to amend the regulations to get the Permanent Residency application going again, and we have now done so,” said Premier Hon. Alden McLaughlin.
