Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will make it her policy to record and publish data in relation to the number and outcome of applications received from stateless persons each year under paragraph 3, schedule 2 to the British Nationality Act 1981.

I am sorry but we do not hold the data required to answer the question in the requested format.

The Home Office regularly shares information with UNHCR, relating to stateless applications and decisions made. The information provided is published by UNHCR, in regular trend reports. The latest published report by UNHCR on mid year trends June 2016 can be found at link below:
