In 2008 and 2009, the UK Border Agency removed or deported approximately 11,000 offenders. Of these, approximately 30 per cent. will have been removed on ‘conducive' grounds. Information on those removed on conducive grounds from before 2008 would necessitate reviewing individual removal records. This would be a disproportionate cost.
