Britain returns 1,100 migrants to France under 'one in, one out deal', new figures show
Newly released figures show just under 1,100 migrants have been returned to France since the launch of Labour's "one in, one out" deal.
The agreement between the UK and France came into force on August 6, 2025.
Under the terms of the deal, France agreed to accept the return of individuals who had crossed the English Channel to the UK illegally, in exchange for the same number of approved asylum seekers being transferred from France to the UK.
Figures published on Thursday by the Home Office show 1,087 people were returned to France in the 11 months from August 2025 to June 2026, while 1,117 people were transferred from France to the UK.
It is the first time official data on the deal has been released.
