Thank you for your Freedom of Information request of the 20 April asking the following of 11 MILLION and the Children's Commissioner:

In line with your request I have attached a summary of the information that we hold in connection with UKBA UASC reform programme together with a copy of the legal opinion which we received from Nicholas Blake QC regarding the use of X-rays in the age assessment of young asylum seekers.

Should you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact me.


Yours sincerely
