Age Assessments for Asylum Seekers
I am doing research on the topic of age assessments for asylum seekers whose age is disputed. I would like to know, under FOI: * The number age assessments you have carried out in a) 2022 b) 2023 and c) 2024 * The outcome of the age assessments carried out by the Council in a) 2022 b) 2023 and c) 2024 * The number of age assessments you have referred to the National Age Assessment Board (NAAB) in a) 2022 b) 2023 and c) 2024 * Confirmation that the NAAB reports back to the Council on the outcome of the cases referred to it and if the Council records the outcome to request disclosure of this data (i.e in how many of the age assessments referred to the NAAB was the asylum seekers age accepted by the NAAB and in how many cases was the age rejected) * The number of age assessments decisions made by Council that have been reviewed by the NAAB
