No recourse to public funds ..
Please can anyone confirm whether the requirement for a KOL test was in place in October 2010?

I understand that this has been replaced by Life in the UK Tests which came into force later. My Filipina sister-in-law (who is very fluent in the English language both verbally and in writing) was interviewed in Manila in English as part of her settlement visa application so just wondering whether the KOL test is actually relevant for the date that the visa application was submitted in Oct 2010?
