The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many (a) men, (b) women, (c) male children and (d) female children have come to the UK via the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy since 1 April 2021.

Answered by Luke Pollard

The Home Office publishes data on the Afghan Resettlement Programme (ARP) – the cross-Government delivery pipeline for all Afghan resettlement schemes - in the ‘Immigration System Statistics Quarterly Release’. Data on resettled arrivals is published in table Asy_D02 of the ‘Asylum and resettlement detailed datasets’, with breakdowns by resettlement scheme, sex and age. Information on how to use the dataset can be found in the ‘Notes’ page of the workbook. The latest data relates to December 2024.
