Question

Asked by

To ask Her Majesty's Government further to the Written Answer by Baroness Kinnock of Holyhead on 4 March (HL2336), whether any other department keeps statistics on how many British citizens have been refused entry to the United States or other countries; and, if not, whether they have assessed the usefulness of doing so. [HL2554]

We are not aware of any other department keeping statistics on how many British citizens have been refused entry to the United States or other countries. We have not assessed the usefulness of keeping such statistics ourselves. Neither the national authorities nor the individuals concerned are obliged to inform us of such cases.
