Answered by Dame Angela Eagle
All migrants temporarily relocated to the UK from Diego Garcia have undergone the required security checks in line with the appropriate immigration rules.
Migrants with criminal convictions, charges, or subject to ongoing investigations were not in scope for that relocation. We do not comment on individual cases.
