Rights of migrant workers in an irregular situation and members of their families 2013, para. 32
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- Article 16, paragraph 8, provides for the right of all migrant workers and members of their families who are deprived of their liberty by arrest or detention to take proceedings before a court, in order that the court may decide without delay on the lawfulness of their detention. If the court finds that the detention is unlawful, it must order the release of the detained migrant worker. The Committee considers that mandatory detention of migrant workers and members of their families in an irregular situation is incompatible with article 16, paragraph 8, if the possibility of judicial review is confined to a formal assessment of whether the migrant worker concerned entered the State party without a valid entry permit, without the possibility of release if the detention is incompatible with article 16, paragraph 4.
