HC Deb 24 May 1993 vol 225 c433W
Mr. Allen

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many individuals, after being detained under the Immigration Act 1971, were subsequently deported in each year since 1990.

Mr. Charles Wardle

Information on persons removed from the United Kingdom under the deportation process is given in table 15 of the Home Office statistical bulletin "Control of Immigration: Statistics—Third and Fourth Quarters and Year 1992", a copy of which is in the Library. Precise information on the number of such persons who had been detained under the Immigration Act 1971 immediately prior to deportation is not available, and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.

Mr. Allen
