§ Dr. HarrisTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department to what extent Her Majesty's Government's policy on removals to Zimbabwe of failed asylum seekers has changed in response to the civil unrest and political repression in that country. [125125]
§ Mrs. RocheWe see no reason at present to change our arrangements for the removal of failed asylum seekers to Zimbabwe. No one has been or will be removed to Zimbabwe unless we are satisfied that they can return without risk. Each case is considered on its individual merits and circumstances. Developments in Zimbabwe are being carefully monitored.
