Asylum: Russia
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions she has had with Cabinet colleagues on the potential impact of the maritime interdiction of Russian Shadow Fleet vessels in British waters on asylum applications from Russian service personnel.
Answered by Alex Norris
The Home Office is working closely with other Government departments in relation to the Russian Shadow Fleet. It would not be appropriate to comment in detail on those discussions or on security matters.
The Home Office monitors impacts of HMG actions, policy changes and world events on our assessment of asylum applications.
