Immigration: Homelessness

Asked by Neil CoyleLabourHome OfficeTabled Answered 6 November 2024UIN 12077

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many assessments for destitution her Department has made for people subject to No Recourse to Public Funds conditions in each of the last five years.

Answered by Seema Malhotra

We are unable to provide this information as it is not routinely published, and it can only be obtained at a disproportionate cost.

When an individual goes through the process of assessment for Change of Conditions, various No Recourse to Public Funds conditions are checked, with ‘destitution’ being one of these conditions.
