" Two members of staff were spoken to, but no further action was taken.”
The agency said it was unable to comment further on the visit, but added: “The Government is tackling illegal immigration and the harm it causes by removing those with no right to be in the UK.
"We continue to work with law enforcement agencies to tackle illegal migration in all its forms. Our New Plan for Immigration will fix the broken system; making it fair to those in genuine need and firm on those who seek to abuse it.”
