Responding to your request
When we receive your request, we will acknowledge it within 3 working days and provide a response within 20 working days.
We will always try to release as much information as possible; however, there are exemptions that stop certain information being released.
If any exemptions apply to your request, you’ll be told what they are and why they apply.
If you're not happy with how your request was processed, you can make a complaint and ask us to review our decision.
Further information about your rights to information is available from the Information Commissioner's Office.
