78. In the last six quarters there has been a reduction in
the total number of cases to be loaded onto to the CID. There
has also been a notable reduction in the Temporary and Permanent
Migration Pool. However, the backlog total is over 304,000. The
biggest contributor to the total backlog remains the Migration
Refusal Pool. The Home Office has contracted Capita to address
this backlog, and Capita has found many duplicate cases and identified
where people have left the country. The total is being reduced,
but very slowly, and if it was reduced at the current rate of
70,000 a year it would take over four years to remove. That does
presume it carried on being reduced. Alarmingly, the Migration
Refusal Pool actually increased from Q1 to Q2 in 2014. We repeat
our previous recommendations that these backlogs must be cleared
as a priority.
