Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many asylum seekers who are (a) men, (b) women and (c) under 18 were accommodated by her Department in each constituency in Wales in each of the last six years.
The Home Office publishes quarterly data on the number of asylum seekers in Section 95 dispersal accommodation, by local authority.
Data regarding the precise locations of asylum applicants cannot be provided at ward or constituency level as to do so would incur disproportionate costs and be precluded by the provisions of the Data Protection Act, given that individuals could reasonably be identified by such data.
