Notes
Please note that the Home Office is not able to provide data on the city in which the offender lives or the reasons each offender has not been deported as the costs would be disproportionate.Deportation may not be pursued for a number of reasons, such as not meeting the deportation criteria, meeting a specific legal exemption or an appeal being allowed on human rights grounds.
