To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, in how many applications to appeal a decision on (a) an asylum application and (b) an application for refugee family union in the First Tier Tribunal Asylum and Immigration Chamber the applicant paid a fee in the latest period for which figures are available.
Answered on
14 June 2016
There were 2,890 applications to appeal an asylum decision where a fee was paid by the applicant in the calendar year 2015.
The number of applications to appeal a refugee family union decision is not collected by HM Courts and Tribunals Service.
Notes to figures:
1. The figure includes asylum, protection and revocation of protection appeals because they come under the umbrella term of ‘asylum’.
2. Figures provided are taken from internal management information and not subject to the same quality checks as Official Statistics.
