I am writing to confirm that the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) has now
completed its search for the information which you requested on 22 June 2008.
I can confirm that the FCO does hold information relevant to your request.
An e-mail sent from FCO London on 30 Oct 2002 to all overseas posts entitled “UK
devolution: Marking saints' days and public diplomacy” contained the following line:
We leave it to posts to consider how best they wish to mark St George's Day on 23 April 2003
If you are unhappy with the service you have received in relation to your request and wish to
make a complaint or request a review of our decision, you should write to me within 40
working days.
If you are not content with the outcome of your complaint, you may apply directly to the
Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally, the Information Commissioner cannot
make a decision unless you have exhausted the complaints procedure provided by the FCO.
The Information Commissioner can be contacted at: Information Commissioner's Office,
Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF.
