Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will make an estimate of how many (a) outstanding asylum claims there are from people in and (b) refugees there are in Bolton South East constituency as of 30 March 2023.

The requested information is not held in a reportable format and could only be obtained at disproportionate cost. Whilst the Home Office holds information on the addresses of asylum claimants and those seeking further leave to remain, the number residing in Bolton South East constituency as of 30 March 2023 is not held in a reportable format and would require a manual search through individual records.
