LONDON – 80% of people detained in immigration detention centers in Britain by 2022 will be released from prison instead of being deported, according to reports. The purpose of immigration detention is to detain people who have been caught illegally immigration and be deported from the UK. But the Independent Monitoring Board’s (IMB) annual report found that the vast majority were released without repatriation.
The Home Office will only detain people if they are likely to be removed within a reasonable time. But many are released following legal proceedings or following being assessed for health problems. A much higher percentage of those in detention were deported than in 2022, according to a summary of government immigration data between 2015 and 2019. From 2015-19, an average of 44% of those incarcerated were deported. According to Home Office data, the cost of immigration detention is £112.85 per person per night.
