Not publishing it means that anybody else wanting the same information means they have to make a second request. The email signature stating it is confidential is just boilerplate text they place on every email.<br /><br />The Home Office completed an internal review on one of my requests today, deciding that they have indeed taken too long to respond and so are in breach of section 10.
