The Bishop of Durham received the following written answer on 3rd February 2021:

The Lord Bishop of Durham asked Her Majesty’s Government how many individuals have been granted an Adult Dependent Relative visa since 2016; and how many of those Adult Dependent Relative visas were granted through appeal.

Baroness Williams of Trafford (Con, Home Office): The entry clearance data which is published and available can be found at:

https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/managed-migration-datasets

(Select Entry Clearance visas granted outside the UK)

Providing the complete information requested would exceed the word limit for responses to written parliamentary questions and for further info see below

Her Majesty’s Courts & Tribunals Service data relating to appeal outcomes is published here:

The data required for this question in terms of how many were granted through appeal cannot be produced through normal data cycles and would involve manual reconciliation.
