The request was refused by Home Office.

Dear Home Office,

How many immigration liaison staff were located in each RALON location during December 2010, 2012 and 2015 (e.g. 2 in Accra in 2012; 5 in Bangkok in 2012 etc.).

Yours faithfully,

Dear Home Office,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Home Office's handling of my FOI request 'RALON in 2010, 2012 and 2015'.

I disagree with the argument that the “disclosure of the withheld information would provide potential illegal migrants and organised crime groups with information about Immigration Enforcement International’s capacity and capability to identify and counter the threats from illegal migration and host governments’ position in supporting our aims.” This FOI requests historical information and I fail to see how it is likely to “prejudice the prevention and detection of crime and the operation of immigration controls” currently. Certainly, the disclosure of the number of immigration liaison staff located in each RALON location during December 2010, 2012 has no bearing on current immigration controls as this information applies to a period over five years ago.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/r...

Thank you in advance for you consideration.

Yours faithfully,

N Ostrand
