Nearly 30,000 failed asylum seekers, foreign criminals and other immigration offenders have been returned to countries across Africa, Asia, Europe and South America since the election.
It comes after increased immigration enforcement action by the Government.
The figures released today show a 12 per cent increase in returns compared to the same period 12 months ago.
This surge in removals is part of the Government's Plan for Change, which aims to restore order to the asylum system.

The continued rise in removals includes a 23 per cent increase in enforced returns and a 14 per cent increase in foreign national offenders' removals since July 5.
The Government has also conducted the four biggest returns charter flights in UK history, with more than 850 people on board in total.
These enforcement actions form part of the Government's strategy to break the business model of smuggling gangs through tougher law enforcement powers and remove those who are in Britain illegally.
The Home Office has also since released a new video showing 47 people with no right to be in the UK arriving in Albania after being returned via a UK charter flight.
The footage shows the inner workings of the removals process and provides insight into post-flight processing once in country.
It also showcases the work being carried out by the UK-Albania Joint Migration Task Force, which has led to a 95 per cent reduction in Albanian small boat arrivals over the last three years.
