Answer

I refer the Member to the attached document. I am advised the reasons for all cancellations are not held in a reportable format. To obtain the information, a manual review of each visa record would be required, and the public interest would not be served. INZ are only able to determine if a visa was cancelled within a specific period when a "cancelled visa" alert has also been raised in our system. Therefore, the number of cancelled visas is likely to exceed the total in our response.
