Asked by:
Richard Fuller (Conservative - North Bedfordshire)
Question
to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what categories of risk are defined by her Department for assessing the removal priority of people who have overstayed their visas.
Answered by Angela Eagle
- Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs)
The information requested is not currently available from published statistics, and the relevant data could only be collated and verified for the purpose of answering this question at disproportionate cost.
As set out in legislation at section 10 of the Immigration Act 1999, all individuals who “require leave to enter or remain in the UK but do not have it” are liable to removal. This will therefore include individuals who have overstayed and those who have had visas revoked, as well as any other individual who is found to not have leave to enter or remain in the UK, such as those who have entered clandestinely or those who have used deception to secure entry to the UK. These rules are applied equally across all categories of immigration offenders.
