Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what progress her Department has made with the investigation of the Abdulrahimzai case; and when she plans to publish the report.

The Home Office is conducting an internal investigation to examine the circumstances surrounding this case. We do not routinely publish internal reports and there are no plans to do so here.

All asylum claimants are subject to mandatory security checks against their claimed identity including criminality checks on UK databases and we are working to strengthen ties with international partners to make vital intelligence sharing more seamless. Individuals attempting to dupe the system using multiple names and ages will face decisive action.
