Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many migrants awaiting determination of status in the UK and subject to electronic tagging have broken the conditions of the tag in the last 2 years by nationality.
This question was answered on 16th January 2023
A pilot was launched on 15 June 2022 with the purpose of establishing whether electronic monitoring is an effective way to improve and maintain regular contact management with asylum claimants who arrive in the UK via unnecessary and dangerous routes, in order to progress their immigration case.
The total numbers of migrants who have broken the conditions of tag is 151.
