Updated 'Asylum and resettlement summary tables, year ending March 2021'. The figures in table Asy_07b of the asylum summary tables for Section 98 for the years ending March 2020 and March 2021 were incorrectly shown as the figures for Section 4, and vice-versa. This table has been updated to show the correct figures for Section 98 and Section 4 for these time periods. Figures for previous years were unaffected.

'Why do people come to the UK? For family reasons‘ figures for dependant grants, in section 1.2, corrected (76,604 to 76,594 and 12,735 to 12,620).
