Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, for what reason she has revoked the multi-entry visa of Amr Darrag, the former Egyptian Minister for International Co-operation.

The Home Office does not routinely comment on individual cases. The Home Office has obligations in law to protect this information.

Before issuing a visa, entry clearance officers overseas must be satisfied a foreign national meets the requirements of the Immigration Rules in the
category of entry sought and that they have not brought themselves within scope of the general grounds for refusal. An Entry Clearance Manager has the power under the Immigration Rules to revoke a visa where appropriate.
