Undocumented Migrants: Offenders
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many illegal immigrants have committed a crime in each of the last three years; and how many have been denied protected status after committing a crime.
Answered by Dame Angela Eagle
Work is currently underway to publish more detailed information on foreign national offenders (FNOs) subject to deportation. Further information on this work can be found at: Statistics on foreign national offenders and the immigration system - GOV.UK.
Of the total returns since 5 July 2024, 4,436 were of FNOs. This is an increase of 14% compared to the 3,879 FNO returns in the same period 12 months prior (FNO returns include both enforced and voluntary returns).
