Lord Green of Deddington – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Green of Deddington on 2016-07-12.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many immigration offenders, excluding failed asylum seekers and foreign national offenders, have been removed in each of the last five years for which figures are available, and how many of those first arrived in the UK on a student visa.
Baroness Williams of Trafford
The Home Office publishes quarterly and annual statistics on the number of persons removed or departed voluntarily from the UK within Immigration Statistics on the GOV.UK website: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/home-office/series/immigration-statistics-quarterly-release.
The information requested regarding Foreign National Offenders and total returns is available in the tables attached.
The Home Office is unable to provide data as requested for those who first arrived in the UK on a student visa as this would involve cross checking databases and incur disproportionate costs.
