Applications for visas on the affected routes from the affected nationalities are now being refused. The Impact Assessment published during implementation of the visa brake sets out the forecasted impacts on Student visa applications for the affected nationalities. The latest public immigration statistics show that visa applications for the affected routes and nationalities in Q2 2026 have on average fallen by over 90% compared to Q4 2025.
We value the contribution of the higher education sector and continue to engage regularly with it, including Universities UK and the Russell Group, on the challenges the system faces. The visa brake is a temporary, evidence led measure, but will only be lifted when the Government judges it appropriate to do so.

The UK's longstanding position is that all external support to the warring parties in Sudan only serves to fuel the conflict. We continue to have regular conversations with our partners across the region and the Middle East - including with the UAE - and work closely with those with influence to try to bring the warring parties to the negotiating table.
The UK has imposed an arms embargo on Sudan, continues to call for compliance with the UN arms embargo on Darfur, and is currently supporting US efforts to secure its renewal and where possible to extend its scope.
We have already sanctioned individuals suspected of committing atrocities in the war in Sudan, or fuelling the conflict through the supply of mercenaries and military equipment, and have recently targeted actors suspected of using the gold trade to bankroll Sudan's brutal war from beyond its borders.
To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Collins of Highbury on 5 March 2025 (HL5277), what funding has subsequently been allocated to programmes addressing conflict-related sexual violence in (1) Sudan, and (2) the Democratic Republic of the Congo; and how those allocations compare with the previous financial...

The Government remains committed to preventing and responding to conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV). Central funding to tackle CRSV has been protected at £3.85 million per year for the next three financial years, through to April 2029. The Government has also stepped up our support to survivors of CRSV this year in contexts including Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Whilst our work on CRSV and gender-based violence runs through different programmes in these countries, we announced a multi-year £20 million programme to specifically support survivors of CRSV to access medical and psychological support in Sudan. In March, the UK announced £7.3 million in extra humanitarian support to communities affected by escalating conflict in eastern DRC and the wider region. This includes £2 million for the International Committee of the Red Cross providing emergency healthcare, including trauma surgery and specialist support for survivors of sexual and gender‑based violence in the DRC.
Survivor reach is calculated using implementing partners' monitoring data against agreed programme results frameworks. The form of assistance and duration vary according to programme design. Partners are required to apply agreed reporting methodologies and safeguards which minimise double counting.

The visa brake for Afghanistan, Cameroon, Myanmar and Sudan will be reviewed by the Home Office after 18 months after imposition.
