Stella Creasy – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Stella Creasy on 2016-09-06.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many passenger interviews were undertaken with people of each (a) ethnicity, (b) religion and (c) nationality by UK Border Agency officials at each UK airport in the last five years; and whether each of those passengers was permitted to continue their journey after that interview.

Mr Robert Goodwill

Data on the number of interviews carried out at port is not available centrally. However, there is information already in the public domain on those who are subject to an intervention at the border and refused entry ie not permitted.
