To ask Her Majesty's Government what are the projected figures for UK net migration in the next five years; and what assessment they have made, or intend to make, of the cost to the UK of any fall in migration.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what are the projected figures for UK net migration in the next five years; and what assessment they have made, or intend to make, of the cost to the UK of any fall in migration.
Information on projections of net migration under different scenarios, is published by the Office for National Statistics, as part of UK population projections. The Government’s immigration White Paper, the UK’s Future Skills-Based Immigration System, includes an economic appraisal of potential impacts of a reduction in EU work-related migration.

To ask Her Majesty's Government what percentage of those who have been held in immigration detention centres for more than 28 days in each of the last four years were granted (1) refugee status, and (2) the right to remain, in the UK.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what percentage of those who have been held in immigration detention centres for more than 28 days in each of the last four years were granted (1) refugee status, and (2) the right to remain, in the UK.
Information on the length of detention, and reason for release from detention, is available in tables dt_06_q and dt_14,q of the detention tables in the latest release of ‘Immigration Statistics, year ending June 2019’. The published statistics show the number of people who were granted leave to remain (LTR) in the UK on leaving detention. However, this is not broken down by type of leave, nor will it include those who are released from detention for other reasons and subsequently granted LTR.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to protect the interests of children of European citizens who are resident in the UK in the event of Brexit taking place (1) with, and (2) without, a deal.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to protect the interests of children of European citizens who are resident in the UK in the event of Brexit taking place (1) with, and (2) without, a deal.
The Government has been clear that we will protect the rights of EEA citizens resident in the UK before Brexit and their family members, regardless of whether we leave the European Union on 31 October with or without a deal. This includes the rights of EEA citizen children and of non-EEA national children of EEA citizens.
The EU Settlement Scheme will continue to operate as now for those resident here before Brexit and they will have until at least 31 December 2020 to apply for UK immigration status under the scheme. That status will enable them to continue to live in the UK and enjoy the same access to benefits and services as now.
Applications under the EU Settlement Scheme can be made by children, or by a parent or legal guardian applying on their behalf, and can be based on the child’s own residence in the UK or in line with that of a parent applying under the scheme. We are paying particular attention to how we communicate the EU Settlement Scheme to children and are undertaking research in partnership with the University of Liverpool to develop age-appropriate communications materials. We are also working with a range of children’s rights organisations to benefit from their insight and use their networks to ensure wide access to these materials.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to bring forward legislation to ensure that all holders of British National Overseas passports have the right to enter the United Kingdom to work or study.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to bring forward legislation to ensure that all holders of British National Overseas passports have the right to enter the United Kingdom to work or study.
Holders of British National (Overseas) passports are non-visa nationals and can apply for the right to work or study in the UK. This means that they can enter the UK for six months or less without the need to obtain a visit visa but would need to apply from outside the UK, and meet the criteria, for any work or study route. The UK continues to support the ‘One Country, Two Systems’ model underpinned by the Sino-British Joint Declaration; the immigration status of BN(O)s is part of this agreement.
