Please could I draw your attention to any possible re-use of the above/attached information as follows: The Freedom of Information Act FOIA. gives people a general right of access to information held by or on behalf of public authorities that should lead to a better understanding of how public authorities carry out their duties, how the decision making process works and how they spend public money. Access to a document under a FOIA request does not give an automatic right to re-use the document. Should you wish to re-use the document please write to me and this shall be considered in light of the Re-Use of Public Sector Information Regulations. You should:
Submit requests in writing, which includes e-mail. • Give your name and address
• Specify which documents you want to re-use
• State the purpose for which the document is to be re-used.
Re-use of Information provided under the FOIA and without permission granted under the Re-use of Public Sector Information Regulations may amount to a breach of copyright and related rights.
If you need any further assistance, please d not hesitate to contact me. However I hope that this provides the information you required but if you are unhappy with the service you have received in relation to your request and wish to request a review of our decision, you should write to me at the above address quoting the reference number.
If you are not content with the outcome of the review you may apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally the Information Commissioner cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the review and complaints procedure provided by the Trust.
