PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(18 November 2024)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many private provider contracts have been commissioned by the NHS to treat irregular migrants each of the last ten years; and what the cost to the public purse was of those contracts.

Asked by:
Rupert Lowe (Restore Britain)

The Home Office and its contractors work closely with the National Health Service, local authorities, and non-governmental organisations to ensure that people can access the health care and support they need. All asylum seeker accommodation providers have a duty and requirement to assist people who need it to access healthcare systems in their local area. The Department of Health and Social Care does not hold information on the services commissioned by the Home Office.
