Dear Immigration Department,

I am writing to make a data access request regarding bail granted to
immigration detainees. May I know, in each of the years between 2015-20:

a) the number of people who were detained for immigration offences that
were granted bail.

b) out of a), the percentage of people granted bail: 1) prior to detention
2) within 1 week of detention 3) after 1 week of detention

If a CSV or Excel format is possible, I would greatly appreciate it.

Yours faithfully,
Raquel Amador
