Home Office written question – answered at on 23 June 2022.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to her policy on deporting asylum seekers to Rwanda, whether she has set a target number for the reduction of people crossing the English Channel in small boats.
The Migration and Economic Development Partnership is part of a suite of measures in the New Plan for Immigration that we are implementing to tackle unnecessary, dangerous, and illegal journeys. There is no one single solution to this issue.
While people are dying making perilous journeys, it is only right that this Government reduces the draw of travel through multiple safe countries to claim asylum in the UK.
