She added: “The Government is tackling illegal immigration and the harm it causes by removing those with no right to be in the UK.

“We continue to work with law enforcement agencies to tackle illegal migration in all its forms.

“Our Nationality and Borders Bill, which passed its latest stage in the House of Lords last week, will fix the broken system; making it fair to those in genuine need and firm on those who seek to abuse it.”
