The UK holds a watchlist of adverse information and intelligence drawn from a variety of sources, including the police. The system is used by Home Office staff for the purposes of national security and the detection and prevention of crime. It is longstanding policy not to discuss either the specific data held on the watchlist, the source of the data or how it is used as to do so would be counterproductive.<\/p>

The Home Office publishes quarterly statistics on entry clearance visa grants
by category in table be_01_q (Before Entry tables volume 2) within the
\u2018Immigration Statistics' release. The numbers are broken down by nationality in
table be_06_q_f (Before Entry tables volume 4). It is not possible to
separately identify those granted visas under the old family rules and those
granted visas under new family rules implemented on 9 July 2012.

A copy of the latest release, \u2018Immigration Statistics January - March 2014' is
available from the Library of the House and from:
https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/home-office/series/immigration-stati
stics-quarterly-release.

The figures provided relate to family members issued visas in the family
immigration route. Statistics on the dependants of migrants issued visas in
other routes, such as the Points Based System, can be found within the
published data at the above link.

The information requested in part (ii) on the UK nation of residence of the
sponsor of each of the family visas of interest is not readily available and
could only be obtained at disproportionate cost. Furthermore, not all sponsors
are based in the UK and not all individuals granted a visa in the family route
have a sponsor.<\/p>

We do not routinely comment on whether an organisation is or is not under consideration for proscription.

A decision to proscribe an organisation must be based on a belief that it is concerned in terrorism as defined in the Terrorism Act 2000, and it must be proportionate.

Claims for asylum are increasing. In 2013 the number of asylum applications
within the EU was the highest it has been since 2002. The UK has experienced an increase
of 30% between 2010 and 2013 \u2013 with an 8% increase between 2012 and 2013 alone.

The Home Office provides ongoing support for local authority Prevent
coordinators funded by the Home Office in priority areas (currently thirty
local authorities, based on assessment of risk), to ensure that they understand
the threat of extremism and are equipped to deal with it effectively. This is
done through regular regional events, issuing briefings on specific issues, and
sharing best practice across different authorities. The police, including
police Prevent co-ordinators, also work closely with local authorities and
share appropriate information with them.

The Home Office issued advice in 2013 to help local authority Prevent
Coordinators manage the challenges posed by extremist speakers. This included
an overview of the duties placed upon public bodies under the Equalities Act
2010 and the regulations that events must comply with.

Additionally, the Department for Communities and Local Government gave
Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council and Luton Borough Council funding to lead
a national Special Interest Group of local authorities across England affected
by the activities of the English Defence League and similar groups, which has
supported them in sharing knowledge about what works best in tackling extremist
groups.<\/p>
