The information requested in part (a) covers a broad range of casetypes and is not held centrally for in country cases. It could only be obtained at disproportionate cost. For international appeals the average time for allowed appeals to be implemented from January 2014 to September 2014 was 45 calendar days.
The Home Office has 14 days to consider whether to appeal an allowed First-tier or Upper Tribunal decision (although this can be longer in some Upper Tribunal decisions where the last avenue to appeal is direct to the Court of Appeal).
The relevant unit responsible for implementation will be notified once a decision has been made not to appeal. There are currently no set targets in place governing implementation of appeals.<\/p>

The Home Office does not have responsibility for prisons so requests for filming would be made to the Ministry of Justice.We do not have a central record of how many times broadcasters have requested to film immigration removal centres or how many times those requests have been granted.<\/p>

The Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill is an urgently-needed response to the increased terrorist threat. It therefore relates to the matters of counter-terrorism and national security, which are reserved, non-devolved or excepted matters.
The Home Office is having ongoing discussions, at both Ministerial and official level, with the Devolved Administrations on the measures within the Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill. I have spoken and written to Ministers in the Welsh Assembly Government, Scottish Government and Northern Ireland Executive. On Monday 15 December, the Prime Minister chaired the Joint Ministerial Committee, attended by the First Ministers of each Devolved Administration, at which the Bill was discussed.
Consultation with colleagues in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland continues, particularly in relation to the measures in Part 5 of the Bill (\u2018Risk of being drawn into terrorism\u2019).<\/p>

New Family Migration Rules were implemented on 9 July 2012 to prevent burdens on the taxpayer, promote integration and tackle abuse. We have kept those rules under regular review and have made a number of adjustments to them in light of feedback on their operation and impact, including from Parliamentarians, the public, legal representatives and Home Office staff.<\/p>
We studied the report of the APPG on Migration\u2019s inquiry into family migration when this was published in June 2013. This ongoing review process will continue in April 2015 and will also take into account the findings of the courts on the new policies. This includes the July 2014 judgment of the Court of Appeal in MM and Others, which upheld the lawfulness of the minimum income threshold under the new Family Migration Rules and found that it strikes a fair balance between the interests of those affected and the community in general.<\/p>

Her Majesty's Passport Office (HMPO) is recruiting over 1,100 FTE staff to frontline posts. Over 620 staff are already in post or appointed and the remaining staff will be recruited by around the end of the current financial year.
The majority of staff are being recruited on two year fixed contracts with an option to convert to permanent positions at the end of that period. Just over 250 staff are employed on fixed term contracts of between three and eleven
months and around a further 30 will be recruited on the same terms. In addition, HMPO will be making use of around 170 temporary staff, either on a seasonal basis or by insourcing from existing suppliers. Recruitment agencies
have been engaged in the recruitment programme. The recruitment levels are based on forecast demand for 2015 and 2016 and take into account existing staff exiting the organisation or moving on promotion to other than frontline posts.<\/p>
