Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the potential merits of including separately identifiable seizures of (a) fentanyl and (b) fentanyl analogues in her Department's quarterly publication series entitled Border Force transparency data in line with her Department's annual publication series entitled Seizures of drugs in England and Wales.

Fentanyl and their analogues are currently included in the quarterly Border Force Transparency data under 'Other Class A' drugs.

To ensure alignment with the Seizures of drugs in England and Wales statistics, we intend to show fentanyl seizures separately in the Border Force data from the August 2023 Transparency data publication.
