	question text	To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many rough sleepers there are in Havering; and how many have been deported by his Department's Rough Sleeper Support Service in each of the last three years.

	uin	278422
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2019 answer text <p>According to the 2018/2019 report produced by the Combined Homelessness and Information Network (CHAIN), which is publicly available online and can be accessed by anyone, 32 people were seen sleeping rough in Havering across the course of that year. CHAIN is a multi-agency database recording information about rough sleepers and the wider street population in London.</p><p>The Rough Sleeping Support Service, which was first announced in August 2018 as part of the Government’s Rough Sleeping Strategy, was introduced to help non-UK nationals sleeping rough resolve their immigration cases and access the support that they need. It does not undertake any enforcement action. It has an administrative role, conducting status checks, identifying priority cases and ensuring that we can help those who require evidence of their immigration status or assistance in leaving the UK.</p><p>The Home Office may take action on a case-by-case basis where individuals have exhausted all other avenues and are unwilling to leave the UK voluntarily. This is in line with existing immigration law.</p><p>Removals of non-UK rough sleepers cannot be disaggregated in the published statistics on the removal of those without lawful status. It is also not possible to directly attribute removals to interaction with the RSSS because a range of factors will have affected how decisions were reached in these cases. A person’s removal from the UK is determined by their immigration <br>status and circumstances, including unwillingness to depart voluntarily, not by contact with the RSSS.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 22/07/2019 16:17:43 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2019 answer text <p>For reasons of national security we cannot be specific about the number of UK nationals suspected of leaving the UK in order to support the activities of Boko Haram or Islamic State West Africa Province.</p><p>Anyone who returns to the UK from engaging in terrorist activities overseas should expect to be investigated to determine if they have committed criminal offences or pose a threat to our national security. Where evidence of crimes exist, those responsible should expect to be prosecuted for them. Decisions on prosecution are taken independently of Government by the police and the Crown Prosecution Service.</p> answering member constituency Wyre and Preston North answering member printed Mr Ben Wallace question first answered 23/07/2019 15:54:01 answering member 1539 label Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace

The roles of the United Kingdom, the Governor and the elected government are set out in the Constitution of the BVI. As with all Overseas Territories, the United Kingdom Government works in partnership with the government of the BVI across a wide range of issues.</p> answering member constituency Tamworth answering member printed Christopher Pincher question first answered 31/07/2019 12:50:09 answering member 4075 label Biography information for Christopher Pincher
