The One Home Office (OHO) programme has been launched, which aims to build a stronger new Home Office with a vision, mission and values which is being structured to deliver against the Home Secretary’s People Priorities. Interventions Sanctions and Compliance (ISC), and the rest of the new Borders and Enforcement capability, will play a key role in delivering both the OHO vision and the HS priorities.

ISC within Immigration Enforcement is responsible for implementing, overseeing, and operating some of the measures designed to restrict ineligible migrants from accessing benefits and services. Its aim is to encourage compliance with the immigration rules, a critical component of the overall enforcement effort to tackle illegal migration through a series of legislative and non-legislative measures, built on a framework of compliance, deterrence, and data-sharing, underpinned by safeguards, which strengthen eligibility checks on migrant access to work, benefits and services to ensure:

- Those without eligibility are less likely to be able to live and work in the UK;
- Public funds are protected.
