Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if she will make an assessment of the potential implications for her policies of the number of times courts have cited (a) the UN Global Compact for Migration and (b) other non-binding international agreements in their rulings on asylum and immigration cases.

The Ministry of Justice does not have policies in relation to asylum and immigration, responsibility for which sits with the Home Secretary. Nor does the Ministry of Justice consider or hold any data on the number of times in which the UN Global Compact for Migration or other non-binding international agreements have been cited in court rulings.
