Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what information she obtained from the Sri Lankan government on the (a) criminal records of and (b) allegations of criminal behaviour made about the Sri Lankan nationals on Diego Garcia.

All migrants temporarily relocated to the UK from Diego Garcia have undergone the required security checks in line with the appropriate immigration rules.

Migrants with criminal convictions, charges, or subject to ongoing investigations were not in scope for that relocation. We do not comment on individual cases.
