Inland Border Facilities: Ashford

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when the IT system at Sevington inland border facility was last updated.

Answer

Our Border IT systems have a range of measures in place to ensure they can continue to run critical services in the event of any major service issues. This includes critical incident, crisis and business continuity plans depending on the nature of the issue and what is impacted. It would not be appropriate to document the specific detail of those measures.
