The Home Office publishes data on people in immigration detention in the ‘Immigration Statistics Quarterly Release’. The number of people in detention on the last day of each quarter are published in table Det_D02 of the Detention detailed datasets. The data can be broken down by nationality of detainee, and place of detention.

The latest data relate to the number of people in detention at the end of June 2021.
