Immigration Officers: Sick Leave

Damian Green
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many immigration officers were granted sick leave for stress in each of the last five years.

Mr. Byrne
The numbers of Immigration Officers1 who have taken sick leave for stress in each of the last three calendar years, recorded on our personnel system (Adelphi) are shown in the following table.

We are unable to provide accurate data previous to 2005 as these were not recorded centrally.

1 “Immigration Officers” are purely those who held that particular grade during the period.

|    |Number|
