how many children of asylum seekers (a) had and (b) had not begun
to receive a standard programme of child immunisation before
entering immigration removal centres in the last 12 months; and how
many of those who had not begun to receive immunisations have
subsequently started a programme of immunisations at an immigration

Yours faithfully,
