Home Department written question – answered at on 23 May 2002.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he plans to establish an independent documentation centre to provide information about countries from which people have fled.
We have commissioned an evaluation of the content and accessibility of country information in the asylum process. This evaluation includes an assessment of whether the information provided by the Country Information Policy Unit, including the country assessments, meets the needs of its users. The finalised report will provide systematic, additional evidence on which to base decisions as to whether any further mechanisms might prove useful, and enable us to reach a decision on the need for an independent documentation centre.
