Deportation: Albania
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment has been made of the cost to the public purse of returning an Albanian national who has no legal right to remain in the UK.
Answered by Home Office
Border Force does not hold published data on the specific cost of returning Albanian nationals who have no legal right to remain in the United Kingdom. Return activity can involve a range of operational and administrative processes, the costs of which vary according to the circumstances of individual cases. The Government is committed to ensuring that immigration enforcement and returns activity is delivered efficiently and provides value for money for the taxpayer.
