            On 8 April 2024, we allowed the Secretary of State's appeal against the decision of the First-tier Tribunal. We found that the First-tier Tribunal (Judge Bennett) had erred in law in two respects: he had failed to make a finding as to the risk of the appellant reoffending and he had misdirected himself in finding that the public interest in the appellant's deportation had been reduced by delay.
            We directed that the decision on the appeal would be remade in the Upper Tribunal, with certain findings preserved. We were unable to remake the decision at that time, however, because the appellant was in prison on remand, awaiting trial for further drugs offences. We will refer to the outcome of that trial below.
            For the reasons which follow, we have decided that the appellant's deportation to Jamaica would not be in breach of the European Convention on Human Rights and that his appeal falls to be dismissed.
             The appellant is a Jamaican national who was born on 16 October 1996 and is currently 28 years old. He entered the United Kingdom with his mother in August 2001. They overstayed their limited leave to enter and remained without leave until they were granted Indefinite Leave to Remain on 5 December 2008.
             The appellant has committed a number of offences in the UK.
