The complainant has requested, from the Home Office, the number of allegations of rape that have been reported by detainees of immigration removal centres. By the date of this notice, the Home Office has yet to provide a substantive response to this request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office breached sections 1 and 10 of the FOIA in that it failed to provide a valid response to the request within 20 working days of receipt.
