Written Question
Deportation
Tuesday 30th January 2024

Asked by: Lord Roberts of Llandudno (Liberal Democrat - Life peer)

Question to the Home Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the case for preventing the deportation of individuals, brought to the UK as children, when they turn 18.

Answered by Lord Sharpe of Epsom - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office)

Individuals who entered the UK under the age of 18 and committed an offence after turning 18 are considered for deportation in line with legislation. Any foreign national who is convicted of a crime and given a prison sentence is considered for deportation at the earliest opportunity.

The Government is determined to do everything possible to protect the public and remove foreign criminals from the UK.

Open Petition since 22nd March 2024

Allow people to stay in the UK if their employer’s sponsor license is withdrawn - 16,493 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 19,341 - 19 added in the past 24hrs)

Employer sponsor licenses have been withdrawn by the Home Office because of different issues which are of no fault of the immigrant themselves. These immigrants are then given 60 days to find a new sponsor or face deportation.

The Government responsed to this petition on 9th April 2024 (View Full Response)
Sponsored work visas allow people into the UK for a set period of time to do specific jobs for a sponsor. Linking visas to sponsors provides safeguards but migrants are free to apply on another basis.

Found: Then they could find themselves facing deportation with nothing to go back to, which can cause mass depression
