<p>The Home Office publishes data on detention in the ‘<a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/immigration-statistics-quarterly-release"
target="_blank">Immigration System Statistics Quarterly Release</a>’. Data on length
of detention for people leaving detention is published in table Det_D03 of the ‘<a
href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/immigration-system-statistics-data-tables#detention"
target="_blank">Detailed detention dataset’</a>. The latest data relates to the end
of September 2023. However this data is not broken down by last place of detention
as this does not show where an individual spent their time in detention. In some cases,
an individual may have spent a period of time detained elsewhere before being moved
to their last place of detention.</p><p>Data on people leaving detention by last place
of detention is published in table Det_04c of the ‘<a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/immigration-system-statistics-data-tables#detention"
target="_blank">Detention summary tables</a>’. However, this data is not broken down
by length of detention, for the reason given above.</p><p>Information on future Home
Office statistical release dates can be found in the ‘<a href="https://www.gov.uk/search/research-and-statistics?keywords=immigration&content_store_document_type=upcoming_statistics&organisations%5B%5D=home-office&order=relevance"
