The home secretary has said children will be exempt from detention and removal from UK under the illegal migration bill. Braverman said the duty to remove 'will not be applied to detain and remove unaccompanied asylum-seeking children'. She said: 'Consistent with current policy, only in limited circumstances, such as for the purposes of family reunion, we will remove unaccompanied asylum-seeking children from the UK. Otherwise, they will be provided with the necessary support in the UK until they reach 18'
