The Home Office currently has total of 1108 members of staff based in Scotland, the majority are in Glasgow (700), Edinburgh (195) and Renfrewshire (155).

For the other locations in Scotland, providing the number of staff based there would reveal information on the security of our borders. Therefore,it is not possible to provide that due to national security.
