§ Mr. VazTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the current number of outstanding appeals to the immigration appeals tribunal and the immigration tribunal.
Mr. John M. TaylorI have been asked to reply.
As of this month, there were 750 applications for leave to appeal outstanding before the immigration appeals tribunal, and 177 appeals. There were 19,077 cases outstanding before the immigration adjudicators; of those, 11,334 are estimated to be cases where the parties have not yet indicated their readiness to proceed, and 364 cases are estimated to be paper cases, which will not require an oral hearing.
