Home Office written question – answered at on 1 March 2021.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many arrests have been made under the Extradition (Provisional Arrest) Act 2020 (a) since that Act was brought into force and (b) in January 2021.
The Extradition (Provisional Arrest) Act 2020 came into force on 1 January 2021. Since that time, four arrests have taken place as a direct result of this legislation being passed, and three of those arrests were made in January.
All figures are taken from local management information and are not quality assured to the level of published National Statistics. As such they should always be treated as provisional and therefore subject to change as officials refresh and revise the available data. The figures do not include Scotland, which deals with its own extradition cases.
