Question to the Home Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government, under the provisions of the Illegal Migration Bill, how many people they are planning to remove to a safe third country in each of the years (1) 2024, (2) 2025, (3) 2026, and (4) 2027.
This question was answered on 17th May 2023
As set out in clause 1(1), the purpose of the Bill is to prevent and deter unlawful migration, and in particular migration by unsafe and illegal routes, by requiring the Home Secretary to return illegal migrants to their home country or remove them to a safe third country.
An economic impact assessment will be published for the Bill in due course.
