COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF THE UK ASYLUM SYSTEM

On 1st April 2021 The Refugee Council commented on The UK report that is part of

the Asylum Information Database, a project coordinated by the European Council on Refugees and

Exiles which aims to provide up to date information on asylum practice in 23 countries.
It gives a comprehensive overview of the asylum procedure, drawing together relevant facts

disproportionate attention on the mode of arrival of people seeking asylum to the UK the

statistics show that overall, applications fell during 2020. You can read more from the
