Requesting information from HO using freedom of information

Post by entrepreneur123 » Sat Mar 15, 2014 12:53 pm

hello,
I am wondering if anyone know what is the best procedure to request information from Home Office using freedom of information act? i have seen some posts on this forum where some people have done that online. Many thanks in advance.

If you are thinking of applying one, below are the details on how to apply:

Write to:

or email to foirequests@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk

more info, here is the link https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/home-office
