<p>Our records indicate that the number of individuals who received a positive conclusive
grounds decision from the National Referral Mechanism who were granted discretionary
leave to remain in the UK were as shown in table 1 below.</p><p> </p><p>The question
has been interpreted as referring to people holding only discretionary leave status
following an earlier positive conclusion grounds decision. The grant of limited leave
may not have been in the same year as the positive conclusive grounds outcome.</p><p>

type of grants individuals might have received using the following hierarchy - Asylum
(at any point during their immigration history), HP, DL & ILR (after the positive

Mechanism (NRM) is the process by which people who may have been victims of modern
slavery are identified, referred, assessed and supported in the United Kingdom. (“Modern
slavery” is a term that covers slavery, servitude and forced or compulsory labour
and human trafficking.) The initial referral goes through a two stage process: a reasonable
grounds stage and then, for those with a positive reasonable grounds outcome (where
it is considered that the person is a potential victim of trafficking/slavery), a
conclusive grounds stage (where the person is considered to be a confirmed victim
of trafficking/slavery) .</li></ol><p> </p><p>We cannot determine if the grant is
linked to the fact that the person was also a victim of trafficking.</p>
