Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many Russians sanctioned by the Government have been issued Tier 1 Investor visas since 2014.
We do not routinely comment on individual cases.
As of 19th April, a total of 10 sanctioned Russian nationals have previously held at least one grant of Tier 1 (investor) leave, of these 7 either obtained an initial grant of leave or obtained further leave via the route after 2014.
