Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department takes account of the US travel ban list in determining whether to grant visa applications.

Visa applications are checked against a number of different databases. Any information that is provided from these checks is taken into consideration when considering the visa application. It is long-standing policy not to discuss
specific information used to consider visa applications that is not already in the public domain, as to do so would not be in the interests of border and national security.
