Jim Shannon – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Jim Shannon on 2016-01-13.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many domestic workers were deported in each of the last five years.
James Brokenshire
This question was interpreted as asking for information on enforced removals.
A deportation is defined as follows:
A person who is not a British citizen is liable for deportation from the United Kingdom if the Secretary of State deems their deportation to be conducive to the public good. A deportation order requires a person to leave the UK and prohibits them from re-entering for an indefinite period. The deportation order invalidates any leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom given before the order is made or while it is in force.
Deportations are a specific subset of published removal figures.
The table below shows the number of people who entered the UK as a domestic worker and were then deported from the UK in each of the last 5 years. These figures include both deportations and enforced removals.
