It is not a function of the Referred Casework Unit to review the decisions of Entry Clearance Managers. Where an Entry Clearance Manager refers an application to the Referred Casework Unit for decision, the Referred Casework Unit aims to provide a full response within an internal 15 working day service level agreement, unless further enquiries are needed. The requested data on performance against this service level agreement is not available through published statistics. However, locally held management information confirms that from the 1st April 2014 to 30th September 2014 over 99% of referrals were responded to within 15 working days.<\/p>

The Home Office apologises that the Honourable Gentleman did not receive a Ministerial response to his representations dated 6 October.
This was due to a Home Office administrative error. Officials have beenreminded of the correct procedure to follow when a MP makes personal
representations to the Minister. A response from the Minister has now been sent to the Honourable Gentleman.<\/p>
