11:08
Yeah, I mean, it is exceptional, I suppose, even just to begin with, the fact that there was a High Court case.
11:13
I mean, that is, it is highly unusual.
11:17
That will not have been an easy task.
11:20
It will have had costs for them to be able to pursue that and bring that to the High Court.
11:25
And they were successful.
11:27
So they've had a victory in the High Court, which was the case centred around the Home Office was found to have acted unlawfully against in February 2024, when it removed long-standing protections for survivors of torture, trafficking and other serious forms of violence from its asylum accommodation policy.
