Out of 5,700 people identified for removal, 2,145 can be located for detention, an impact assessment says.
Thousands of asylum seekers earmarked by the Home Office for deportation to Rwanda have lost contact with the department, a Government document suggests.
Northern Ireland Secretary Chris Heaton-Harris and Irish deputy premier Micheal Martin met in London on Monday “In preparation for flights taking off, we have identified the initial cohort to be removed to Rwanda and have hundreds of dedicated caseworkers ready to process any appeals.” But the Irish Government has claimed the number of asylum seekers crossing from Northern Ireland is now “higher than 80%” of Ireland’s overall total due to a shift in migration patterns in recent months.The Irish Government has proposed new legislation to make it easier to send migrants to the UK, effectively reversing an Irish High Court ruling that the UK is no longer a “safe third country” for returning asylum seekers because of the Rwanda plan.
