Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how many consular assistance cases involving British citizens affected by enforcement of the Schengen 90/180-day rule were recorded in each calendar year since 2020.

Baroness Casey has made clear that one of the core purposes of the Big Conversation on Care that she is leading is to hear from people, families, carers, and others with direct, real-life experience of the current social care system, so she can reflect those experiences in her recommendations for reform. That will include individuals aged under 65 years old in need of care, and the individuals caring for them. The Government will wait for the outcome of Baroness Casey’s review before taking any final decisions.
