Mr. Ruffley: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how much (a) her Department and (b) its agencies spent on telecommunication costs in each year since 1997. [234452]
Mr. Woolas: I refer the hon. Member to the answer given on 17 November 2008, Official Report, columns 45-46W.
Mr. Gibb: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many questions for written answer were tabled to her Department in Session (a) 2002-03, (b) 2003-04, (c) 2004-05, (d) 2005-06, (e) 2006-07 and (f) 2007-08 to date; and how many were (i) answered substantively and (ii) not answered on grounds of disproportionate cost. [235392]
Mr. Coaker: This information is not held centrally.
Damian Green: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what the evidential basis is for statements by Ministers in her Department that somebody is removed from the United Kingdom every eight minutes. [227553]
Mr. Woolas [holding answer 20 October 2008]: There were 63,365 removals, including voluntary departures, from the UK in 2007. As the UK Border Agency operates 24 hours a day and seven days a week this equates to a removal taking place, on average, every eight minutes
National Statistics on removals from the UK are published in table 6.1 of the Control of Immigration: Statistics United Kingdom 2007 bulletin. Copies of this publication are available from the Library of the House and the Home Offices Research, Development and Statistics website at:
The removals figure includes enforced removals, persons refused entry at port and subsequently removed (including cases dealt with at juxtaposed controls), persons departing voluntarily after enforcement action had been initiated against them, persons leaving under Assisted Voluntary Return Programmes run by the International Organization for Migration and persons who it has been established have left the UK without informing the immigration authorities.
This figure is rounded to the nearest five and is provisional.
John Barrett: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many children are held at Dungavel Immigration Removal Centre. [221810]
Mr. Woolas [holding answer 6 October 2008]: On 30 October 2008, there were two children with their mother in detention at Dungavel House Immigration Removal Centre. Children are only ever held with their parents and normally spend no longer than 72 hours in the centre.
Mr. Frank Field: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many applications for further leave to remain have been received in each of the last 10 years; how many applications were granted; how many applicants came originally (a) for the purposes of work, (b) to study and (c) for other reasons; and for each category, how many dependants were brought to the UK. [232203]
Mr. Woolas [holding answer 3 November 2008]: The following shows the number of applications made since January 2002, and of those how many were granted. This is the date from when fully electronic consideration and recording commenced. Prior to that paper based records were in use. The data are separated out by year, case type group and main/Dependant applications.
Figures are rounded to the nearest five.
Because of rounding, figures may not add up to total shown.
The figures quoted are not provided under National Statistics protocols and have been derived from local management information and are therefore provisional and subject to change.

Main applicant applications | Dependant applications | ||||
Type | Granted | Total received | Granted | Total received | |
Notes: 1. The data provided cover applications made between 1 January 2002 and the 30 September 2008. Therefore the data for 2008 are for an incomplete year. 2. The data are based on in country non-asylum leave to remain applications made between the above dates (not Indefinite Leave to Remain). 3. Granted in the table refers to a grant of limited leave to Remain only (not indefinite leave to remain) 4. Type in the table refers to the case type of the application made and actually represent the grouping of many different immigration casetypes. 5. This data differ from that published under the National Statistics Protocol in that they are based on date of application rather than date of despatch. 6. Figures are rounded to the nearest 5 7. Because of rounding, figures may not add up to total shown. 8. The figures quoted are not provided under National Statistics protocols and have been derived from local management information and are therefore provisional and subject to change. |
