No Recourse to Public Funds is the default condition for grants of leave to remain in most categories. It is not a condition that is normally imposed due to exceptional circumstances.

Data is not held in the requested format and to establish whether a migrant did not or did not have the no recourse to public funds condition imposed due to exceptional circumstances would require individual examination of records. This would incur disproportionate cost.
Total grants of leave to remain can be found in table ex_01_q in the Home Office’s Immigration Statistics July to September release, available for download at:
