<p>The Dublin III Regulation is a long-standing mechanism between EU Member States
to determine responsibility for examining asylum claims. It is not an application
route for transfer to the UK. At present we do not publish data on cases covered by
the Dublin Regulation. Eurostat, the EU’s statistics agency, regularly publishes Member
State figures, which can be found at: <a href="http://appsso.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/nui/show.do?dataset=migr_dubto&lang=en"
target="_blank">http://appsso.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/nui/show.do?dataset=migr_dubto&lang=en</a></p><p>Under
the Dublin III Regulation, member states have two months from receiving a request
from another participating Member State to accept or reject responsibility for processing
the asylum claim. <br>Once a Dublin request has been accepted, the Regulation provides
that the sending Member State has six months to enact the transfer. The Home Office
works closely with EU Member State partners to enact transfers as soon as possible
and ahead of the six-month timeframe.</p>
