REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 2000

Dear Ms Berlow,

Further to your request regarding home education and the further details required around the 4 cases where we have been unable to make contact with the families concerned. And your subsequent request for an Internal review due to Salford's reply to the request being delayed.

We accept that due to operational difficulties and resource issues that on this occasion we were not able to meet our own high standards.

In order to meet our customer demands we are looking at our own operational procedures which we are hopeful will go someway to improve our services to you our customer.

Apologies again for the delay

If you remain unsatisfied after the Internal Review you may wish to contact the Office of the Information Commissioner at:-

Wycliffe House,

Water Lane,

Wilmslow,

Cheshire,

SK9 5AF

Telephone: 01625 545700

Fax : 01625 524510

Yours sincerely,

Terry Walsh
Interim Head of Service
