Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many attempted clandestine entrants were identified at the UK's points of entry by means other than body scanning technology in each of the last 10 years.

The table below shows the number of detections of clandestine entrants which have been made across all UK points of entry by means other than Body Scanning Technology since 2008. Data prior to 2008 is not held centrally and could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.

The figures quoted above are management information, subject to internal quality checks and may be subject to change.
