Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to publish sector-specific data on illegal working enforcement outcomes, including gig-economy sectors.

The Home Office takes the issue of illegal working seriously and continues to take robust enforcement action against those who breach immigration laws.

Official statistics published by the Home Office are kept under review in line with the Code of Practice for Statistics, taking into account a number of factors including user needs, the resources required to compile the statistics, as well as quality and availability of data. These reviews allow us to balance the production of our regular statistics whilst developing new statistics for future release.
