Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by David Burrowes (Conservative). It was answered on Monday, 6 March 2017 on behalf of the Home Office.
Immigration: Indefinite Detention
- Question
-
When will the current system of detention reviews be replaced by the individual removal assessments and reviews, and when will the plan for the future of the immigration and detention estate, promised by the Minister’s predecessor last year, be published?
- Answer
-
We seek to minimise the time for which people are kept in detention, and that is done for the purposes of removal. We have, of course, introduced a new adults at risk policy, which seeks to minimise the use of detention for those considered vulnerable.
