As far as I know, the UKBA view is that Surinder Singh only covers direct family members (spouse, children). It can't be used to bring brothers or cousins to be UK.

See EUN2.14 Can family members of British citizens qualify for an EEA family permit? ('Surinder Singh' cases) (click)

Although the example is given as a spouse or child, the policy states "A British national and his / her non-EEA national family members can only benefit from free movement rights if they meet the criteria established in the ECJ case of Surinder Singh." So far as they are dependant I assume that can be given wide interpretation.

Unfortunately, 9 seems to be restricted to family members. However Rolfus's appeal was apparently successful.
