Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many referrals have been made from Northern Ireland to the Third Country Unit for consideration for inadmissibility since 1 January 2021.

The latest published Immigration Statistics detail inadmissibility decisions made as well as the number of returns. These can be found online at:

How many people do we grant asylum or protection to? - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

The Home Office does not publish a breakdown of these statistics which disaggregates by area of the UK. These figures are not available in a reportable format and to provide the information could only be done at disproportionate cost.
