Information on the length of detention for individuals held in reporting centre holding rooms is not collected centrally by the Home Office.

Reporting centre holding rooms are not open overnight and the length of length of time in detention for individuals held in these locations would not usually exceed twelve hours, although there may be occasional short extensions.
