Figures outlining the number of people supported are published as part of the Home Office transparency data https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/asylum-and-resettlement-datasets#asylum-support

These figures are not broken down into those that have had their asylum claim rejected or the number of people in each household. This information is not readily accessible and would require a manual search.
