Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will publish all Home Office grants, contracts, memoranda of understanding or transfer payments relating to asylum support in Northern Ireland since 2019.
The Home Office provides funding to Local Authorities through several grant agreements, including those for Asylum, Unaccompanied Asylum-seeking Children, and former Unaccompanied Asylum-seeking Children Care Leavers. However, we do not publicly publish grant payment levels by individual local authority. For Northern Ireland, these funds are paid directly to the Northern Ireland Executive Office, which is then responsible for distributing them to each area as they see fit.
