asked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether the United Kingdom Border Agency always discloses, when so requested by Ministers answering Parliamentary Questions, personal information about immigrants or asylum applicants; if not, why not; and under what circumstances Ministers reveal that information in their Answers.[HL4825]
The UK Border Agency will not generally, for reasons of privacy, disclose information about its applicants in response to a PQ, given that responses to PQs are recorded publicly. I will write to the noble Lord privately following his previous PQ in relation to Dr Ahmed.
