There is a perception out there that the numbers coming in are far higher than 13,000. I know it is slightly exaggerated because of the number of people who came in from Ukraine, but that is a different issue. As I understand it, there were 103,000 Ukrainians and 80,000 are currently still here. The perception out there is that far more than 13,000 a year are coming in. How many of the decisions in 2022 were positive towards the person remaining and how many applications were refused? Do we know the current status of the people whose application was refused?
