Asylum: Young People
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the Answer of 23 May 2012 to Question 106405 on asylum: young people, what the results of the dental x-ray pilot were.
- Answer
-
A planned trial of the use of voluntary dental x-rays in the age assessment process did not go ahead in 2012.
The Home Secretary's oral statement on Calais on 24 October (Column 55) referred to the proper safeguarding, age assessment and security checks we carry out, working closely with local authorities and social workers in the UK, to ensure that the children transferred here are eligible to come and it is in their best interests to do so.
