Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to Answer of 24 May 2021 to Question 4046 dated 24 May 2021, if he will publish any data his Department holds on the policy of refunding the Immigration Health Surcharge for overseas workers.

The Department is unable to publish data relating to the operation of the scheme as this information is not currently centrally validated. Partners are responsible for collecting information on the operation of the policy, which is used to maintain an effective service and the Department of Health and Social Care and Home Office will continue to consider the most effective way of ensuring data transparency.
