Mr William Old

Reference: T6276/9

Dear Mr Old,

Thank you for your e-mail of 8 April 2008 in which you ask for all documents relating to temporary promotion and temporary salary for police officers.

I regret that we have been unable to send you a full response to your request within 20 working days, as required by the Freedom of Information Act. This is because we are liaising with colleagues and this is taking longer than expected. I would like to apologise for this delay and for any inconvenience that this may cause. I would like to assure you that we are dealing with your request as a matter of urgency, and that we will send you a full reply as soon as possible. We now aim to send you a full reply by the 15 June 2009.

If you have any queries about the handling of your information request in the meantime then please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours sincerely,

Lorna Morrison

Police Productivity Unit
