UK-Rwanda Partnership

Proceeding contribution from Clive Betts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 December 2023. It occurred during Ministerial statement on UK-Rwanda Partnership.

Does the Home Secretary agree that our constituents would expect that, before we vote on any measure in this House, we thoroughly understand what it is going to cost? In the end, it is not our money we are spending; it is their money. Coming back to a question that he did not answer before, will he give a figure for how much it will cost this Government—our constituents—for each asylum seeker sent to Rwanda for the whole five years they are there? If he will not give us a figure now, will he agree to give a figure before we are asked to vote on the Bill?
