Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many people in each of the last five years who successfully claimed asylum in the UK were from Pakistan.

The Home Office publishes data on asylum in the ‘Immigration Statistics Quarterly Release’. Data on asylum outcomes at initial decision by nationality are published in tables Asy_D02 of the ‘asylum and resettlement detailed datasets’. Please note the breakdown published is the nationality of the applicant rather than the country the applicant came from.

Information on how to use the datasets can be found in the ‘Notes’ page of the workbook. The latest data relates to the end of March 2022.

Information on future Home Office statistical release dates can be found in the ‘Research and statistics calendar’.
