question text	To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether Calais leave status will be extended to minors present in Calais months before the demolition of the Calais camp in 2016 and who entered the UK through the family reunification route and now face deportation.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/11/2018 answer text <p>Calais leave is a bespoke form of leave, introduced specifically for those children transferred to the UK between 17 October 2016 and 13 July 2017 as part of the Calais camp clearance to reunite with family and who did not qualify for leave to remain in the UK under existing Immigration Rules. It was created in recognition of the specific circumstances that surrounded the clearance of the camp and the transfer of children to the UK.</p><p>In agreement with the French Government, the UK took unprecedented action to remove children from a dangerous situation to reunite them with their family in the UK. A total of 549 children were brought to the UK to join family members as part of this process. Granting leave to those transferred from Calais is in keeping with our ongoing commitment to those individuals.</p><p>The Dublin Regulation determines the Member State responsible for assessing an asylum claim and does not confer any right to remain in the UK. An unaccompanied child who is transferred to the UK to reunite with family here under the Dublin Regulation will have their asylum claim considered in line with our published policy and guidance. It would not be possible for the UK to unilaterally alter the purpose of transfers under the Dublin Regulation</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 19/11/2018 17:54:14 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2018 answer text <p>The primary responsibly for children in France lies with the French authorities. It is important that any children present in Calais claim asylum or otherwise engage with French authorities.</p><p>Under the EU Dublin Regulation the UK will accept all requests for transfer of an unaccompanied child’s asylum claims with qualifying family in the UK and where transfer is in the child’s best interests. In order to enter this process, a child must first claim asylum in the Member State in which they are present, and that State must request that the UK takes charge of their asylum claim.</p><p>As part of the Sandhurst Treaty, signed between the UK and France on 18 January 2018, we agreed a comprehensive package to support unaccompanied asylum seeking and refugee children. This includes a £3.6 million development fund to support eligible children through the Dublin process and ensures that those without any prospect for transferring to the UK are informed of their options. We have also agreed shorter timescales for acceptance and transfer under the Dublin process and a UK asylum liaison officer has been deployed to France to support this process.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 20/11/2018 15:17:32 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
