The UK Home Office announced a pilot scheme targeting 150 asylum-seeking families for expedited voluntary removal with enhanced cash payments up to £40,000 per family, with enforced removal proceedings to follow if families decline within seven days. A consultation document proposes that children who resist removal could be physically restrained or handcuffed as a "last resort" to overcome noncompliance during deportations.
