Dear Surabhi Chopra,

I refer to your request for access to information on 13.10.2021 and our
interim reply to you on 21.10.2021. I hereby provide you with the
following information.

Detainees at the Ma Tau Kok Detention Centre (“MTKDC”) who complain of or
appear to be suffering from illness or injuries will be escorted to a
public hospital for medical consultation at the earliest possible time.
 In the case of emergency, ambulance service will be requested for sending
the person concerned to the hospital for urgent medical treatment.  The
Immigration Department does not maintain the requested information.

I hope the information is useful to you.
