Notes

  • The Home Office's operational figures, which it revises as records are checked; its quarterly Immigration system statistics hold the final figures, which may differ.
  • Weeks run from Monday to Sunday and are dated by the Sunday. Arrivals are people detected on arrival in the UK or detected in the Channel and brought ashore; people prevented from leaving France and people who arrive undetected are not counted.
