You may consider a separate request to be made to the Home Office under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act should you require information regarding matters relevant to the Home Office.

If you are dissatisfied with this response you may request an independent internal review of our handling of your request by submitting a complaint within two months to the address below, quoting reference SCC/FOI/06/20/OA. If you ask for an internal review, it would be helpful if you could say why you are dissatisfied with the response.
