Routine reviews of the register of licensed sponsors are undertaken to check that sponsors are still classified as active.
It is normal practice to contact a sponsor if we have any concerns over any individuals they have sponsored or are seeking to sponsor however, we do not hold any published data on this.
Essential updates and reminders are sent periodically to those licensed sponsors currently on the register.
