the government has largely stood back and watched all the legal and political wrangling in the uk over this controversial plan, but in the meantime it has maintained a ready position throughout. so, for example, the hostel where the migrants would land has been prepared to receive them now for nearly two years. this is where they would make their applications for asylum here. and even if those are rejected they will still have the right to stay with residence permits. that was a decision taken in response to concerns of the british supreme court that there was a risk that they could deported back to the countries from which they had fled. and it does require changes in rwandan law which are working its way through the system now along with other measures in order to be compliant with the supreme court's concerns and with the treaty that rwanda has since signed with the uk. the government here has strongly objected to the country being called unsafe. it says, in fact, rwanda has a very good safety record. and when it comes to crime
