Migrants: Deportation

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate her Department has made of the costs of deporting migrants through return hubs.

Answered by Alex Norris

The Prime Minister has been clear since entering government that we need to have innovative and bold solutions to reduce the burden of migration on UK taxpayers. It would not be appropriate to pre-empt the outcome of ongoing negotiations and further details will be released in due course. Our guiding principle will always be something that is workable and meets international obligations.
