Repatriation of Afghan Nationals

Beverley Mills made this Freedom of Information request to Home Office This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.

Home Office did not have the information requested.

Dear Home Office,

I am currently employed by Tascor Services Limited, a private security company, tasked with the repatriation of foreign nationals to their respective countries of origin. Currently the Home Office have tasked Tascor with the removal of Afghan nationals on specially chartered flights to Kabul.

What are the instructions of the Home Office to Tascor regarding the staffing of these flights? Particularly as this country is an "Operational Theatre."
Yours faithfully,

Beverley Mills

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 'Repatriation of Afghan Nationals'.

I feel that my question although unambiguous and to the point has not been answered directly or satisfactorily. I specifically asked about charter flights to Afghanistan and not charter flights in general. To reiterate, what are the Home Office instructions to Tascor/G4S/Reliance, in respect of the staffing of charter flights to Afghanistan, particularly as this is a war zone or now termed a theatre of operations?

I cannot believe that there has not been prior discussion between Tascor (G4S or Reliance) and the Home Office regarding the staffing of these flights and I would like a response that addresses this specific destination.

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

Yours faithfully,

Beverley Mills
