The Home Office is able to make use of a range of sanctions and penalties to encourage and enforce compliance with the Immigration Rules. Some of these are directly within its control, while others are “owned” and administered by other government departments, agencies or third parties with input from the Home Office in the form of data, typically about individuals who do not have right to enter or remain in the UK or whose rights, for example the right to work, are restricted.
This inspection examined how efficiently and effectively the Home Office used these sanctions and penalties, which included looking at what it was seeking to achieve with each and to what extent it was succeeding.

The UK immigration status of domestic abuse victims should not be shared by police, according to a groundbreaking investigation. A report into the first ever ‘super complaint’ submitted by Liberty and Southall Black Sisters and published by three police oversight bodies, details the police practice of sharing victims’ immigration data with the Home Office.
According to the investigation, the police practice of sharing the UK immigration status of domestic abuse victims causes ‘significant harm’ to public interest. The report found that migrant victims of domestic violence in the UK are less likely to report crimes because they fear their information being shared with the Home Office.
