Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what progress has been made on his review of his Department's policies on (a) immigration and (b) refugee family reunion.

We keep all immigration policies under constant review to ensure that the immigration system operates in the national interest

We are listening carefully to calls to expand the scope of the refugee family reunion rules and are reviewing our approach. We continue to follow the passage of two Private Members’ Bills on refugee family reunion closely and will continue our productive discussions with non-governmental organisations in this area.
