<p>Asylum seekers are not allowed to work in the UK unless their claim has been outstanding
for at least 12 months through no fault of their own.</p><p>The data requested on
the number of asylum seekers granted permission to work while their cases are being
considered in each of the last five years is only held on paper case files or within
the notes sections of the Home Office's databases. Therefore, the number of asylum
seekers granted permission to work is not held in a reportable format.</p>
