You asked
I would like to know how many migrants and asylum seekers are registered with the General Practitioner (GP) (NHS) in the UK.
I would also like to know how migrants and asylum seekers require language interpreting and translation when accessing healthcare services.
Please could you provide a short summary of each case. I would be interested in any information held by your organisation regarding my request and would like to receive the information in electronic form.
