People Smuggling: English Channel
Asked by: John Hayes (Conservative - South Holland and The Deepings) Wednesday 12th February 2025 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many people have been (a) charged and (b) convicted for offences relating to supplying small boat parts to gangs involved in smuggling people across the English channel in (i) 2022, (ii) 2023 and (iii) 2024. Answered by Angela Eagle - Minister of State (Home Office) As the Rt Hon Member will be aware, the recently introduced Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill proposes a new offence relating to the supply of articles for use in Organised Immigration Crime, through which we will seek to clamp down on the activities to which his question refers. In respect of charges and convictions in pervious years where these activities were a factor, this data is not held centrally. |
