Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many non-UK EU children in care took part in the Home Office's private beta testing phase two of the EU Settlement Scheme (a) in total and (b) in each local authority area; how many (i) received settled status, (ii) received pre-settled status, (iii) were refused, (iv) requested an administrative review (A) in total and (B) in each local authority area.
In total 19 applications were made on behalf of looked after children by the participating local authorities. We are unable to provide a breakdown by local authority as this may identify some of the children involved.
16 have received settled status.
0 have received pre-settled status
0 have been refused
0 have requested an administrative review
We are working with the relevant local authorities to gather further evidence for the 3 outstanding cases.
