Four report classes. One evidentiary standard.
Every instruction is objective, fully sourced, and prepared in accordance with an expert's overriding duty to the decision-maker.
The expert’s domain is objective risk.
The claimant’s account of what happened to them — their subjective fear — is a matter for the decision-maker. The expert’s task is to establish, from the objective evidence, the conditions and risks that a person of the relevant profile would face. Keeping these domains distinct is what makes a report useful, and defensible.
A person is not refused protection merely because they could avoid persecution by concealing a fundamental aspect of their identity. Concealment of a protected characteristic cannot be required as a condition of safety.
