Lord Roberts of Llandudno – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Roberts of Llandudno on 2016-01-28.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what is the average cost of deporting a person deemed to be an illegal immigrant.

Lord Bates

The Home Office has published information on the average cost of detention and removal but this is not broken down by initial application type, and to do so would incur disproportionate cost.
