Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many Libyan service personnel receiving military training in the UK (a) have been granted political asylum in the UK and (b) are applying to be granted political asylum in the UK.
The general policy of the Home Office is not to disclose personal information about another person. This is because we have obligations under the Data Protection Act and in law generally to protect this information.
The UK has a proud history of granting asylum to those who need our protection and every claim will be considered on its individual merits.
