Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many of the total number of applications for a 12 months leave to remain visa made under her Department's discretionary policy for survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire have been received from people who (a) already had an outstanding asylum claim, (b) were already known either to her Department or the local authority and (c) had spouses who have immigration status within the UK.
The dedicated Grenfell immigration policy is a targeted scheme that we expect to benefit a limited number of people.
We have plans to publish statistics on the Grenfell immigration policy in due course and will not be providing updates on numbers in the meantime.
Details of who is eligible under the policy can be found in the published guidance at the link below.
