Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many additional immigration officers are undergoing training in order to expand the current staffing level.

For security reasons, we would not disclose this level of detail about our workforce. The overall number of officers employed by both Immigration Enforcement and Border Force is at page 107 of the Home Office Annual Report and Accounts: HO annual report and accounts 2020-21 (publishing.service.gov.uk).
